从.jar文件中检索ecore模型

Question

I want to retrieve the compare.ecore model from a .jar file shown in the picture.

I tried to copy and paste it in the Eclipse IDE, but it didn't work. I opened the .jar file in the given path with WinRAR, but I can't find the model in the archive.

How can I retrieve this model?

Answer 1

Do not attempt to import the ecore file from the jar. Rather:

1. Window -> Show View -> Other.

2. Search for "Plug-Ins" -> OK.

3. org.eclipse.emf.compare -> Import As -> Source Project.

4. Package Explorer -> org.eclipse.emf.compare -> model -> compare.ecore

Answer 2

I found an easy way to retrieve the model. I opened it in Eclipse, made a change and saved it via Save As...
