[Eugenie].emf file association gone weird [message #385205]

hi

i installed the epsilon plugin from the update site, downloaded the
Eugenia source from svn and created plugin projects for both the eugenie
and runtime projects.

however when i start my secondary eclipse the emf file extension is
owned by some app on my win box, and i do not have the eugenie menu
associated with it.
Can I change the associated fiel extension easily?

Hi Johan,

Could you please remember to prefix future posts using [Epsilon] as
dictated by the newsgroup policy (http://wiki.eclipse.org/index.php/GMT).

Re your question do you mean that in your 1st workbench you *can* open
and edit .emf files using the Emfatic editor (syntax highlighting etc..)
while in the 2nd you cannot? If that is the case perhaps you should
check the selected plugins in your Eclipse Application launch
configuration (Plug-ins tab). If not please make sure that you have
Emfatic (http://www.alphaworks.ibm.com/tech/emfatic) installed.

As discussed in http://epsilonlabs.wiki.sourceforge.net/EuGENia, the new
version of Emfatic doesn't seem to support detail-less annotations (e.g.
@gmf.diagram) so the old version from the IBM Alphaworks website should
be used instead - at least until this is fixed.

Cheers,
Dimitrios
