Method Detail

getMetamodel

Metamodel getMetamodel()

Returns the value of the 'Metamodel' reference.

If the meaning of the 'Metamodel' reference isn't clear, there really should be more of a description here...

Get the metamodel to which this model conforms

Returns:

the value of the 'Metamodel' reference.

See Also:

setMetamodel(Metamodel), MigrationPackage.getModel_Metamodel()

setMetamodel

void setMetamodel(Metamodel value)

Sets the value of the 'Metamodel' reference.

Parameters:

value - the new value of the 'Metamodel' reference.

See Also:

getMetamodel()

getTypes

org.eclipse.emf.common.util.EList<Type> getTypes()

Returns the value of the 'Types' containment reference list. The list contents are of type Type. It is bidirectional and its opposite is 'Model '.

If the meaning of the 'Types' containment reference list isn't clear, there really should be more of a description here...

Containers for the classes from which instances exist

Returns:

the value of the 'Types' containment reference list.

See Also:

MigrationPackage.getModel_Types(), Type.getModel()

isReflection

boolean isReflection()

Returns the value of the 'Reflection' attribute.

If the meaning of the 'Reflection' attribute isn't clear, there really should be more of a description here...

Whether the reflection interface allows to access the real model structure

Returns:

the value of the 'Reflection' attribute.

See Also:

setReflection(boolean), MigrationPackage.getModel_Reflection()

setReflection

void setReflection(boolean value)

Sets the value of the 'Reflection' attribute.

Parameters:

value - the new value of the 'Reflection' attribute.

See Also:

isReflection()

getResources

org.eclipse.emf.common.util.EList<ModelResource> getResources()

Returns the value of the 'Resources' containment reference list. The list contents are of type ModelResource. It is bidirectional and its opposite is 'Model'.

If the meaning of the 'Resources' containment reference list isn't clear, there really should be more of a description here...

Resources of which this model consists

Returns:

the value of the 'Resources' containment reference list.

See Also:

MigrationPackage.getModel_Resources(), ModelResource.getModel()

If the meaning of the 'Repository' container reference isn't clear, there really should be more of a description here...

Repository to which this model belongs

Returns:

the value of the 'Repository' container reference.

See Also:
