Hi members,
Once a UML model is created, the UML file is generated (.uml) in the project repository but I need to access it and get its content without opening the UML file.
I need the code that makes me able to get this content.
However, I have been wondering: Is it even possible?? Is there any code that offers this possibility?...
Your help is much appreciated.
Thank you in advance.

Hi, Jessica,
What do you mean by not opening the UML file? Of course no software
can read the contents of this file without opening it.
A UML file is an EMF resource like any other. I'd suggest that you
have a look at documentation and tutorial material on the web (Google
will find much, especially at vogella.com) about working with EMF
resources and reading/modifying their contents. The objects that are
serialized in a UML resource conform to the interfaces of the UML API
when loaded, which offers rich facilities for introspecting and
manipulating the model.
HTH,
Christian

Hi,
Sorry, I still don't understand. What does "accessing it directly from
the project repository" mean? The EMF ResourceSet knows how to load
resources that are identified by a variety of URIs:
* platform:/resource/... for files in the Eclipse workspace
* platform:/plugin/... for files deployed in Eclipse bundles
* file:/... for files in the host operating system's filesystem
* http://... for resources on the web
If "project repository" is the workspace, you need the first kind of
URI. If it's an arbitrary Git repository, you may need the thrid or
even the fourth. Where is your UML file located?
Have you tried loading your UML resource into a resource set?
Following a suitable tutorial?
