Matt,
Have you looked at the model diagrams in the Javadoc? In general,
methods like EObject.eAllContents walk the containment tree, so you'll
want to have a look at that. Also in general, you can ask any EObject
for it's eClass() and from that EClass you can use
getEAllStructureFeatures to determine what features are available on the
object. I.e., there's a model you can query dynamically at runtime; the
same one that's shown in the model diagrams for your static analysis.
