Hello,

I have created an ecore2xml mapping. Now I want to make it work. Is it
correct that ecore2xml only works with the resource type xml in my
genmodel? How can I tell my genmodel to use the ecore2xml mapping? Is it
even possible to give the genmodel the ecore2xml mapping?

Mark,

This question is probably more appropriate for the EMF newsgroup (copied).

It's not really expected that Ecore2XML models be used as input to a
generator model... what were you looking to achieve? The original intent
of Ecore2XML models was to use them as input to a resource
implementation, to help drive the way resources are (de)serialized
to/from XML...

Mark,

It's best to use the EMF newsgroup to ask EMF questions. I've added it
to the "to" list of the reply.

This presentation has some information about how to use it:

You can't tell the GenModel to generated code to use it...
