Method Detail

getResources

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

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

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

The resources of which this metamodel consists

Returns:

the value of the 'Resources' containment reference list.

See Also:

MigrationPackage.getMetamodel_Resources(), MetamodelResource.getMetamodel()

getRepository

Repository getRepository()

Returns the value of the 'Repository' container reference. It is bidirectional and its opposite is 'Metamodel'.

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

The repository to which the metamodel belongs

Returns:

the value of the 'Repository' container reference.

getDefaultPackage

org.eclipse.emf.ecore.EPackage getDefaultPackage()

Returns the value of the 'Default Package' reference. Packages that constitute the root of a metamodel resource

Returns:

the value of the 'Default Package' reference.
