Hi,

How can I get the addresses of input model and input metamodel in eol program?
I want to pass these addresses to java.

Hi,

If you're using an EMF-based named M you can get its path using M.getResource().getURI(). If you're using a file-based metamodel for it you can use M.getMetamodelFiles().

Cheers,
Dimitris

Thanks a lot.
Is it also possible to use Aliases for Metamodel? e.g., Is something like "IN_MM!EPackage.allInstances() -> first()" true?

As another question, I created a model in my eol program. Then I pass the URI of the model as you said to java. However, before the contents of model is completely loaded the java function runs. It causes the java function works with empty model and get error. What should I do?

and also how can I check the model is empty or not?

I'm not sure what you're trying to achieve but give this a go and see what happens.

Please attach a minimal example [1] I can use to reproduce the behaviour you're encountering.

Cheers,
Dimitris

Using eclipse Mars.2 (4.5.2) on mac os x.

import Test plugin to eclipse. run it as eclipse application. In the new eclipse, import test1 project and run it.
