Method Detail

values

IEMFListProperty values(FeaturePath featurePath)
Returns a master-detail combination of this property and the specified value nested feature.

Parameters:
featurePath - the nested feature to observe
Returns:
a nested combination of this property and the specified nested feature.

values

IEMFListProperty values(EStructuralFeature feature)
Returns a master-detail combination of this property and the specified value property.

Parameters:
feature - the feature
Returns:
a nested combination of this property and the specified nested feature.

values

IEMFListProperty values(IEMFValueProperty property)
Returns a master-detail combination of this property and the specified value property. The returned property will observe the specified value property for all elements observed by this list property.

Example:

 // Observes the list-typed "children" property of a Person object,
 // where the elements are Person objects
 IEMFListProperty children = EMFProperties
                .list(MyPackage.Literals.PERSON_CHILDREN);
 // Observes the string-typed "name" property of a Person object
 IEMFValueProperty name = EMFProperties.value(MyPackage.Literals.PERSON_NAME);
 // Observes the names of children of a Person object.
 IEMFListProperty childrenNames = children.values(name);
 

Parameters:
property - the detail property to observe
Returns:
a master-detail combination of this property and the specified value property.
