Method Detail

value

IEMFValueProperty value(FeaturePath featurePath)

Returns a master-detail combination of this property and the specified nested value feature.

Parameters:

featurePath - the nested value property to observe.

Returns:

a master-detail combination of this property and the specified nested value feature.

See Also:

value(IEMFValueProperty)

value

IEMFValueProperty value(EStructuralFeature feature)

Returns a master-detail combination of this property and the specified value feature.

Parameters:

feature - the nested value property to observe.

Returns:

a master-detail combination of this property and the specified value feature.

See Also:

value(IEMFValueProperty)

value

IEMFValueProperty value(IEMFValueProperty property)

Returns a master-detail combination of this property and the specified value property. The returned property will observe the specified detail value property for the value of the master value property.

Example:

 // Observes the Node-typed "parent" property of a Node object
 IEMFValueProperty parent = EMFProperties.value(MyPackage.Literals.NODE_PARENT);
 // Observes the string-typed "name" property of a Node object
 IEMFValueProperty name = EMFProperties.value(MyPackage.Literals.NODE_NAME);
 // Observes the name of the parent of a Node object.
 IEMFValueProperty parentName = parent.value(name);
 

Parameters:

property - the detail property to observe

Returns:

a master-detail combination of this property and the specified value property.

list

IEMFListProperty list(EStructuralFeature feature)

Returns a master-detail combination of this property and the specified list feature.

Parameters:

feature - the list feature to observe

Returns:

a master-detail combination of this property and the specified list feature.

See Also:

list(IEMFListProperty)

list

IEMFListProperty list(IEMFListProperty property)

Returns a master-detail combination of this property and the specified list property. The returned property will observe the specified list property for the value of the master property.

Example:

 // Observes the Node-typed "parent" property of a Node object.
 IEMFValueProperty parent = EMFProperties.value(MyPackage.Literals.NODE_PARENT);
 // Observes the List-typed "children" property of a Node object
 // where the elements are Node objects
 IEMFListProperty children = EMFProperties.list(MyPackage.Literals.NODE_CHILDREN);
 // Observes the children of the parent (siblings) of a Node object.
 IEMFListProperty siblings = parent.list(children);
 

Parameters:

property - the detail property to observe

Returns:

a master-detail combination of this property and the specified list property.

map

IEMFMapProperty map(EStructuralFeature feature)

Returns a master-detail combination of this property and the specified map feature.

Parameters:

feature - the map property to observe

Returns:

a master-detail combination of this property and the specified map feature.

See Also:

IEMFMapProperty map(IEMFMapProperty property)

Returns a master-detail combination of this property and the specified map property. The returned property will observe the specified map property for the value of the master property.

Example:

 // Observes the Contact-typed "supervisor" property of a
 // Contact class
 IEMFValueProperty supervisor = EMFProperties.value(MyPackage.Literals.CONTACT_SUPERVISOR);
 // Observes the property "phoneNumbers" of a Contact object--a property mapping
 // from PhoneNumberType to PhoneNumber "set-typed "children",
 IEMFMapProperty phoneNumbers = EMFProperties.map(MyPackage.Literals.CONTACT_PHONENUMBERS);
 // Observes the phone numbers of a contact's supervisor:
 IEMFMapProperty supervisorPhoneNumbers = supervisor.map(phoneNumbers);
 

Parameters:

property - the detail property to observe

Returns:

a master-detail combination of this property and the specified map property.

set

IEMFSetProperty set(EStructuralFeature feature)

Returns a master-detail combination of this property and the specified set property.

Parameters:

feature - the set feature to observe

Returns:

a master-detail combination of this property and the specified set property.

See Also:

set(IEMFSetProperty)

set

IEMFSetProperty set(IEMFSetProperty property)

Returns a master-detail combination of this property and the specified set property. The returned property will observe the specified set property for the value of the master property.

Example:

 // Observes the Node-typed "parent" property of a Node object.
 IEMFValueProperty parent = EMFProperties.value(MyPackage.Literals.NODE__PARENT);
 // Observes the Set-typed "children" property of a Node object
 // where the elements are Node objects
 IEMFSetProperty children = EMFProperties.set(MyPackage.Literals.NODE__CHILDREN);
 // Observes the children of the parent (siblings) of a Node object.
 IEMFSetProperty siblings = parent.set(children);
 

Parameters:

property - the detail property to observe

Returns:

a master-detail combination of this property and the specified set property.
