importFromEcore

public static java.util.List<org.eclipse.emf.common.util.URI> importFromEcore(java.lang.String[] importFiles,
                                                                              java.lang.String containerPath,
                                                                              org.eclipse.core.resources.IContainer container,

Imports specified files (in Ecore format) to the container.

Parameters:

importFiles - Files to be imported (absolute paths)

containerPath - Path for the container (absolute path)

container - Container for imported files

createModels - Indicator if the models should be created as root elements. It instructs the importer on what is going to be the type of the root element. If create models options is set to 'true' then root elements will be created as Models, otherwise they will be created as Packages (which is the default behavior).

Returns:

List of converted resources URIs. The list could be empty. In case of import failure returns null.
