Cross-reference type? [message #1750947]

Hi, I'm newbie,

I have a model (called M) (Aadl system instance) that refers to elements of another model (R).

There are 2 forms of cross references in my models:
- The first one likes "R#/0/@ownedPropertyType.16/@ownedLiteral.3"
- The second one likes"R#AADL_Project.Actual_Processor_Binding"

Eclipse can find element in first form but cannot find element in second.
I don't understand so much the mechanism of cross-reference.

Thanks for any idea and explication!!!

The first forum uses EMF's fragment path mechanism. The resource R will be loaded (strange there is no file extension), and from the root of that resource, the first object of Resource.getContents() is selected (the fact I see a /0 suggests the resource contains more than one root object), and from that object x, x.getOwnedPropertyTypes().get(16) is called, and so on to reach the right leaf object. The second form is an ID-based reference. The reference object apparently has an ID, and for the resource R, R.getEObject("AADL_Project.Actual_Processor_Binding") should return the object with that ID. The resource must have contained an object with that ID at the point in time when the reference was serialized.
