Hey,
I have been successfully using COPE/Edapt to migrate EMF models when Resources are files with XML in them.
I am starting a new project and we are using CDO as the back-end. CDO is just GREAT so far - except I cannot manage to migrate my model easily after a metamodel evolution.
I am using Indigo, and Edapt seems to be uncompatible with CDOResource. For instance its ReleaseUtils class explicitely considers resource uris as file uris and evenmore as XML Files:
/** Extract the namespace URI from a model. */
public static String getNamespaceURI(URI uri) {
return getNamespaceURI_SAX(URIUtils.getJavaFile(uri));
}
Edapt guys: Is there anyway I can have Edapt work with CDO?
CDO guys: Is there something else than Edapt that I should do to migrate my models in CDO when the metamodel changes?
I thank you in advance!

Thanks ;-)

Yeah, that's a known issue. Currently CDO does not support automatic model evolution or schema/instance migration, see:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=256856
The new backup/restore mechanism can help you a little bit:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=330235
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=332355
Since the cost of this feature (in the light of arbitrary data backends and features like auditing and branching) is
unusually high I'm still waiting for a customer to approve the needed budget.

I'm not an Edapt expert, yet, but that doesn't sounds right.

As a temporary "workaround" I already posted some hints to the EMF newsgroup. Please filter for "evolution".

Good to hear.

Conceptually, it should be possible to use Edapt with CDO. In Edapt,
models are migrated using a special intermediate structure which is
based on a metamodel. You would need to make the source metamodel, the
intermediate metamodel and the target metamodel available in CDO. The
source model is transferred to the intermediate structure, then the
migration is performed and finally the model is transferred into the
target metamodel. This functionality is already available. However, I
have never tried to use it with CDO. Unfortunately, I do not have the
resources at the moment to do it myself. However, I can help you if you
like. Also we can try to start a technical discussion with Eike.

This is true. But you do not have to use this method to obtain the
release to which your model conforms. You can provide your own
implementation.

Sorry that I cannot help you more at the moment.

Good ;-)

We're lacking of such information for huge repositories. It would be awesome if you could post yours here.
Both the export and the import mechansims are designed carefully, with large repositories in mind. There are no EObjects
and there is no object reference resolution involved. They operate on CDO's lowest and quickest level. Even large
objects (blobs and clobs) are streamed directly from the database into the XML export file and vice versa.
