Rashmy,
You can use @implements or @extends in the use-doc section to specify
additional interfaces that will be mixed in during merge. You can also
define an EClass with a given instanceClassName, set it to be abstract
and an interface, and then extend that...

Ed,
Thanks for replying.
Yesterday, I got hold of an EMF book where I found the below notes:
"The user section of the Javadoc comment associated with an interface may
also contain a special control directive used during merging: the @extends
tag, followed by a comma-separated list of interfaces. The generated
interface's extends clause will be merged with this list. This allows you to
add non-generated super-interface, without removing the @generated tag."
I tried the following option but after code generation the addtional
interface is not available in the implementation class.
Option 1:
/**
* @model abstract="true"
* @generated
* @extends com.partner.install.Deployable
*/
public interface University extends EObject
{
........
}
After reading your mail today, I even tried the below @implements option and
it did not work.
Option 2:
/**
* @model abstract="true"
* @generated
* @implements com.partner.install.Deployable
*/
public interface University extends EObject
{
........
}
Could you point me to some example available either in the EMF book or
online article?
My Eclipse EMF version is 2.3.0.
Thanks!

Rashmy,
I tried this with the library example code and it works fine.
/**
* @model extendedMetaData="name='Book' kind='elementOnly'"
* @generated
* @extends java.io.Serializable
*/
public interface Book extends EObject, java.io.Serializable
{
Are you saying if you do this, *and *you add it to the actual Java, that

Ed,
That is correct.
Here are the steps that were followed. Let me know if I'm missing =
something.
1)Add @extends to interface University as below
/**
* @model abstract=3D"true"
* @generated
* @extends com.partner.install.Deployable
*/
public interface University extends EObject, =
com.partner.install.Deployable
{
........
}
2)Add Deployable interface to the implementation class as below
public abstract class UniversityImpl extends EObjectImpl implements =
Univeristy, com.partner.install.Deployable
{
...
}
3)Open the ecore file and add a new attribute to University element.
4)Open the genmodel file and select "Generate Model code".
5)The entires for Deployable interface is removed from the Univeristy =
interface and implementation class.
Thanks.

Rashmy,
I am unable to duplicate this. I know we've been using this in Ecore
itself for a long time without a problem, e.g.,
/**

* A representation of the model object '<em><b>EEnum Literal</b></em>'.
* @extends Enumerator
* <!-- end-user-doc -->

* <li>{@link org.eclipse.emf.ecore.EEnumLiteral#getLiteral

* <li>{@link org.eclipse.emf.ecore.EEnumLiteral#getEEnum
<em>EEnum</em>}</li>
* </ul>
* </p>
*
* @see org.eclipse.emf.ecore.EcorePackage#getEEnumLiteral()
* @model
* @generated
*/
public interface EEnumLiteral extends ENamedElement, Enumerator
Are you able to duplicate your problem with the library example? I.e.,
does what I show work for that example or not?

Yesterday, I got hold of an EMF book where I found the below notes:
"The user section of the Javadoc comment associated with an interface may
also contain a special control directive used during merging: the @extends
tag, followed by a comma-separated list of interfaces. The generated
interface's extends clause will be merged with this list. This allows you to
add non-generated super-interface, without removing the @generated tag."
I tried the following option but after code generation the addtional
interface is not available in the implementation class.
Option 1:
/**
* @model abstract="true"
* @generated
* @extends com.partner.install.Deployable
*/
public interface University extends EObject
{
........
}
After reading your mail today, I even tried the below @implements option and
it did not work.
Option 2:
/**
* @model abstract="true"
* @generated

*/
public interface University extends EObject
{
........
}
Could you point me to some example available either in the EMF book or

My Eclipse EMF version is 2.3.0.

This post is to figure out implementing a third-party interface within

There is a ecore file that I created with the below setup:

--description:EString
Next I generate code using the EMF genmodel file.
Everything good so far.
Next, I open the UniversityImpl class and make it implement a

So the code looks like this:

Now, if I go back to the ecore file and add more attributes to Univeristy
and regenerate the code, the interface Deployable is lost. The "generated

this I will not have EMF generate code for this class anymore.
Could you let me know if there is a way to define this interface as part

Ed,
I could reproduce the same issue with Library example too.
But the issue got resolved by adding @extends tag between the below =
tags.=20
* <!-- begin-user-doc -->
* A representation of the model object '<em><b>EEnum Literal</b></em>'.
* @extends Enumerator
* <!-- end-user-doc -->
I did this based on the code snippet you sent below for EEnumListeral.
Thus far I was adding the @extends tag outside of the begin and end =
user-doc tag.
Thanks for helping me out.

Next I generate code using the EMF genmodel file.
Everything good so far.
Next, I open the UniversityImpl class and make it implement a
third-party interface. Say the interface is named Deployable
So the code looks like this:
public abstract class UniversityImpl extends EObjectImpl implements=20
University, Deployable
{
........
}
Now, if I go back to the ecore file and add more attributes to =
Univeristy=20
and regenerate the code, the interface Deployable is lost. The =
"generated=20
NOT" tag can be used in the UniversityElement class. But then by doing=20
this I will not have EMF generate code for this class anymore.
Could you let me know if there is a way to define this interface as part =
of the ecore file so that I can take advantage of the EMF code =
generation=20
capability too? Is there some article that I can read?
Thanks,
Rashmy

Rashmy,

Are you able to duplicate your problem with the library example?
I.e., does what I show work for that example or not?<br>

Thanks for replying.
Yesterday, I got hold of an EMF book where I found the below notes:
"The user section of the Javadoc comment associated with an interface may
also contain a special control directive used during merging: the @extends
tag, followed by a comma-separated list of interfaces. The generated
interface's extends clause will be merged with this list. This allows you to
add non-generated super-interface, without removing the @generated tag."
I tried the following option but after code generation the addtional
interface is not available in the implementation class.
Option 1:
/**
* @model abstract="true"
* @generated
* @extends com.partner.install.Deployable
*/
public interface University extends EObject
{
........
}
After reading your mail today, I even tried the below @implements option and
it did not work.
Option 2:
/**
* @model abstract="true"
* @generated
* @implements com.partner.install.Deployable
*/
public interface University extends EObject
{
........
}
Could you point me to some example available either in the EMF book or
online article?
My Eclipse EMF version is 2.3.0.
Thanks!

You can use @implements or @extends in the use-doc section to specify
additional interfaces that will be mixed in during merge. You can also
define an EClass with a given instanceClassName, set it to be abstract and
an interface, and then extend that...

Vincenzo,
You can always define a wrapper EClass (an EClass with the instance type
name set to some existing Java interface) and use that in the
eSuperTypes of some other EClass.
