EStructuralFeature Resolution of a contained EObject Instance [message #1699368]

Hi,

I'll use this simple example to present my question. A parent (EObject) contains a series of children (These children could be of different type).
e.g.
Parent
...Child 1
...Child 2
...Child 3
...

I would like to know how do I get the EStructuralFeature used to store Children X for the container Parent. I would like to have a method that implements something like:

EStructuralFeature getEStructuralFeature(EObject parentInstance, EObject childInstance)

Thanks in advance for your help.
