Hi,
I have a 3 layer model structure like this.
M3(instance of Ecore)--->M2(instance of M3)---->M1(instance of M2).
Since M3 is an instance of Ecore I am bale to see the ecore file of it
containaing tags like <eclass> and <estructuralfeature> etc.
Now I want to view the ecore form of model M2 also.

Is there any way of seeing it in ecore form with tags like <eclass> etc?

Gitanjali,

How is this question different from the last time you asked?
