Re: [emf-dev] XPath support for EMF

[lucas <lucas.bigeardel@xxxxxxxxx>]

Thomas,

An EMFT commiter (Peter Neher) released an XPath engine running against ecore metamodels (see: http://www.eclipticalsoftware.com/emf/xpath).

This engine relies on Jaxen (Apache style light open source licensing).

Topcased released such XPath contribution based on this framework sometime ago (which was very raw).

Another aspect is that EMF URIs actually had an XPath like support. You can also have a look at SDOUtil class which embbed a minimal xpath _expression_ utils for ecore (http://kickjava.com/src/org/eclipse/emf/ecore/sdo/util/SDOUtil.java.htm).

Hi all,

I am searching for XPath support for EMF.

It should be possible to have String-expressions (XPath-like) to navigate to an EMF-model.

This framework looks good:
http://www.eclipticalsoftware.com/emf/xpath/

But i am looking for a framework supported through the EMF / Eclipse community.

Does anyone have experiences with this ?

Thanks,

Thomas
