[news.eclipse.platform] Re: cannot convert from URI to URI

[Ed Merks <merks@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Aritz,

It sounds like you are trying to convert a java.net.URI to an 
org.eclipse.emf.common.util.URI.  You can convert between them by 
converting either one to a string and constructing the other one from 
that string.   Note that to access a workspace resource using an EMF 
resource you should be using 
URI.createPlatformURI(iFile.getFullPath().toString(), true) to create a 
URI of the form "platform:/resource/<project>/<path>/<file>...
