Run EMF Validation of an Ecore model outside of Eclipse

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

Solution

  • 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.
