I have two uml models, model1 and model2. I need to add all the elements
in model2 into model1, so that the new model1 has all the elements of
model1 and model2. How can I do it?

Thanks.

Basicly, what I did is:

find all the Packages in model2 and add them to model1's packagedElements.

The problem is:
The applied stereotypes are lost.

Zheng,

Please use the UML newsgroup, which I've added to the "to" list of the
reply, for questions about UML.

Hi Zheng,

For a general "copy" method you can have a look at EcoreUtil.copy(EObject
eObject).
The UMLUtil PackageMerger uses this to copy elements.

Alternatively have a look UML2Util.getAllContents() to get the contents of
one object. A defensive copy of the contents can be made.

Cheers,
- James.
