Hello,

By default, I saw that EMF Client Platform uses XMI format to make operations like "Import project" , "Export", "Import child" in its model explorer. Can this be changed into XML format?
I want to use ECP and NOT an EMF RCP application, there I know I can change this.

Thank you very much,
Simona

Hi Simona,
An XMI file is already an XML file see Wikipedia .
Only the file extension is different. The dialogs filter for files with an xmi extension, but when loading or saving a file you can override the default extension.

You can nonetheless replace the whole dialog by providing an own implementation of org.eclipse.emf.ecp.internal.ui.util.ECPFileDialogHelper as an OSGi Service.
You can find an implementation of this here: /org.eclipse.emf.ecp.ui.rcp /org.eclipse.emf.ecp.internal.ui.util.ECPFileDialogHelperImpl or if you don't have the source code, you can find it in git: Git Source

I hope this helps,
Eugen
