May be i am not explaining it well.
I have written an interface extending from ERference and have added new methods.
public interface EReferenceExt extends EReference {
public int getProperty();
}
public class EReferenceImplExt extends EReferenceImpl implements EReferenceExt {
protected int poperty = 1;
public int getProperty() {
return poperty;
}
}
Now i try to create ecore model programmatically:
EPackage pack = EcoreFactory.eINSTANCE.createEPackage();
pack.setName("pack");
pack.setNsURI("http://www.eclipse.org/emf/pack/person");
EClass person = EcoreFactory.eINSTANCE.createEClass();
person.setName("Person");
pack.getEClassifiers().add(person);
EAttribute name = EcoreFactory.eINSTANCE.createEAttribute();
name.setName("name");
name.setEType(EcorePackage.Literals.ESTRING);
person.getEStructuralFeatures().add(name);
EReference children = new EReferenceImplExt();
children.setName("children");
children.setEType(person);
children.setUpperBound(ETypedElement.UNBOUNDED_MULTIPLICITY);
children.setContainment(true);
children.setResolveProxies(true);
person.getEStructuralFeatures().add(children);
EReference spouse = new EReferenceImplExt();
spouse.setName("spouse");
spouse.setEType(person);
spouse.setContainment(true);
spouse.setResolveProxies(true);
person.getEStructuralFeatures().add(spouse);
URI uri1 = URI.createFileURI("c:\\testP.ecore");
ResourceSet resourceSet = new ResourceSetImpl();
//resourceSet.getResourceFactoryRegistry().getExtensionToFactoryMap().put("ecore", new EcoreResourceFactoryImpl());
Resource resource = resourceSet.createResource(uri1);
resource.getContents().add(pack);
try {
resource.save(Collections.EMPTY_MAP);
} catch (IOException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
Now when i see the ecore file i see
<eStructuralFeatures xsi:type="ecore:EReference" name="children" upperBound="-1"
eType="#//Person" containment="true"/>
<eStructuralFeatures xsi:type="ecore:EReference" name="spouse" eType="#//Person"
containment="true"/>
it does not say anything about newadded property in EReferenceExt.... if i want to load the ecore model programmatically from generated ecore file, will it give me the instance of EReference or EReferenceExt? i want to get object of EReferenceExt.
do you have any clue?
thanks for your assistance
Cheers

That seems like a bad idea.

If you have an extension you ought to be using the factory for that
extended model to create the extension but I guess the sense that you
have no such model so that's not going to work at all because
spouse.eClass() is going to return just the EClass for EReference...

Well yes, if reflectively it looks like an EReference that what will be
serialized and if reflectively there is no "property" EAttribute it
won't be serialized either.

Because apparently you've not modeled an extension, you've just written
some Java code and by EMF reflection, that's completely invisible.

Again, it's a bad idea, but if you feel compelled to ignore advice, you
need model your extension, not just hand write some Java code.
