[news.eclipse.modeling.gmt] Re: [Epsilon] top-level container in EOL

[Dimitrios Kolovos <dskolovos@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Kimon,

There is no such built-in operation. However, the following operation 
should do the job:

operation Any topEContainer() {
  if (self.eContainer().isDefined()) {
    return self.eContainer().topEContainer();
  }
  else {
    return self;
  }
}

Cheers,
Dimitris
