Run EMF Validation of an ecore model outside of Eclipse

Question

Hello,

I found nothing how to validate an ecore model outside of eclipse. Does someone know how to do this?

Answer 1

Here is the skeleton of some code I've used to validate an EMF model outside of Eclipse:

EValidator.Registry.INSTANCE.put(YourPackage.eINSTANCE, new YourValidator());

BasicDiagnostic diagnostics = new BasicDiagnostic();
boolean valid = true;
for (EObject eo : yourResource.getContents())
{
    Map<Object, Object> context = new HashMap<Object, Object>();
    valid &= Diagnostician.INSTANCE.validate(eo, diagnostics, context);
}

There is more customization you can do, but I hope that helps get you started.
