Hi guys,

i just started working with EMF and created a model according to this tutorial http://eclipsesource.com/blogs/tutorials/emf-tutorial/.

My project is quite big and is intended to be used by multiple developers at once. In this example the MyBowling.model is used. The model itself is saved as plain xml on the filesystem.

Is it possible to create a model that saves its children in different files?
For example we have the league.bowling file. And it only references another file for each player instead of containing all players in one file.

Greetings,

an emf newbie

Yes. On a containment reference you can set Resolve Proxies to true
(which should be the case by default), and in the GenModel you can set
Containment Proxies to true. If you regenerate with that, you'll see
there is Control... in the context menu for the child object (Player),
which allows you to "move" it to its own resource.
