[news.eclipse.modeling.gmt.amw] Re: *.ecore Format not EMF/GMF compatibl

[tbroemme@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (Tim Brömme)]

Hi ! Thanks for your reply.

Our goal is an editor to annotate semantic concepts to PSM classes.

I found my mistake. I mistook metamodel with model. I tried to open an
M1-instance with the mentioned "Sample Ecore Model Editor" without
loading the appropriate M2-instance (also created with AMW). 
Hence it is not suprising that eclipse raised the two errors.


regards, Tim
