Because the work that I describe above was for a client, I can't make 
that available publicly.

However, there are some ECF test cases that do this.  Specifically, see 
AbstractEndpointDescriptionWriterTest

http://git.eclipse.org/c/ecf/org.eclipse.ecf.git/tree/tests/bundles/org.eclipse.ecf.tests.osgi.services.remoteserviceadmin/src/org/eclipse/ecf/tests/osgi/services/remoteserviceadmin/AbstractEndpointDescriptionWriterTest.java

This test class refers to EDEFBundleGenerator...which given some input 
information creates and writes a bundle that contains dynamically 
generated EDEF...using the EndpointDescriptionWriter class that I 
described before.

Hopefully this will get you well on the way.   At some point in the 
future...if desired...I could probably refactor and move the 
EDEFBundleGenerator into ECF API rather than test code, but this can't 
happen right away as we are closing in on Luna freeze). Or...if you are 
able...given your arrangement...you could create such a utility class 
(i.e. for dynamically creating and installing an 'edef bundle') and 
contribute it to ECF.   Please consider doing that...it would make a 
nice community addition.

Thanks,

Scott
