Hi all.

I have two Ecore Models, let's say A and B.

Ecore A has several classes. One of those classes (with one attribute) is extending the only class of Ecore B (with two attributes).

To set this up in the Ecore A, I went to Load Resources and put Ecore B and associated the correct ESuper Type to the desired class of Ecore A.

After I generated all the code with EuGENia.

So far so good.

The problems appeared when I tried to drop one component to the GMF Editor, getting the following error:

It appears you did not generate both A and B and that the instances you're working with are actually dynamic instances not generated instances. But I can't really comment further without knowing anything about how you created the instances involved.

The way I generated all was by going to the genmodel (which contains both Ecores) and clicked Generate All. Isn't that the right way?

Yes, but you mentioned EuGENia and I have no idea what that's about or how that's relevant in this picture. And the only problem I see is this in your stack trace:
Caused by: java.lang.ClassCastException: org.eclipse.emf.ecore.impl.DynamicEObjectImpl cannot be cast to thesis.Search
at thesis.diagram.edit.commands.DriveCreateCommand.doExecuteWithResult(DriveCreateCommand.java:60)
But what that code is doing and where the DynamicEObjectImpl is coming from, I can only guess. But you have a debugger and you can set a breakpoint here. You can also set a breakpoint in DynamicEObjectImpl's constructor to see where and why it's being created when your code here is expecting a generated Search instance.

I did set a breakpoint before but was unable to start the program. Maybe this is quite obvious but since there's no main class, I'm kinda lost in where to instantiate the debugger mode?

Attached I send the construction of both Ecores.

Your stack trace shows that you've launched the IDE, but now you're saying you can't or don't know how to launch it under debug control? Just use the debug toolbar button to launch the IDE application just like the run button you used to launch it in order to have seen that stack trace in the first place.

I didn't use the launch button as I told you, because it doesn't work, nor does the debug button. The way I ran the program was by going to the plug-in.xml and clicking on "Export deployable plug-ins and fragments". Then after restarting Eclipse, I could create a diagram of my Ecore instance. No launch button was ever clicked, but thanks for your suggestion.

You should always be able to launch your application without deploying it first. It's just a matter of configuring the launch configuration appropriately, i.e., selecting the appropriate application to run (which looks like an Eclipse application) and perhaps selectively choosing which plugins to include in the launch, though typically just including all the workspace plugins does the trick. You won't be able to effectively develop your solution/application you if can't effectively launch under debug so you really should figure out how to do that.

By running the application normally it started working as it should. Afterall it seems like I was the one creating the problem. Thanks Ed Merks.
