[news.eclipse.tools.emf] Access EcoreModel instance

Hi everybody...

I encountered a problem in accessing an instance of a Ecore modell residing in my workspace of Eclipse.

Situation: I want to access an Ecore Modell from a newly created Plugin existing in the current Eclipse instance. This can be done via an URL file based. if I now open die URL I can access the content and everything is fine.

Now if an Ecore Model editor is open in the same time the model won't be updated immediately. I have to refresh the display.

Question: The Ecore Model Editor owns a Ecore Model reference itself (EObject root node). How can I access this root node of the opened Ecore Model Editor?

The background is: I want to alter the content of an Ecore model via EMF techniques and whenever a change was registered the EMF fires various events about this update and the Ecore Model Editor changes its display "on the fly". Now if I change the model from another Eclipse Plugin via this root node instance of the opened Ecore Model Editor I can "see" the changes in the moment they happen...

I hope I made myself clear enough that some one could help me ;)

Cheers
