Hi Sami,

Apologies for the late reply; Dimitrios is on vacation, and I've been 
unwell this week.

To specify an enumeration type, use the following Emfatic syntax:

gmf.node(label="type")
abstract class File {
  attr YourEnumType type;
}

enum YourEnumType {
  type1 = 0;
  type2 = 1;
  type2 = 2;
}

Full reference documentation for Emfatic can be found at:

Many thanks,
Louis.
