EMF Search---GenModel Integration
GenModel is basically an Ecore model for Ecore generation. Thus, it was a natural candidate for an EMF Search integration.
GenModel elements are pretty similar to those defined in Ecore meta model. Search page has a simple textual expression area. GenModel extension of the EMF Search framework is very similar to the UML2 one. They are all inheriting from the Ecore one.
Results are displayed in a very similar form than Ecore or UML2 ones.
Results allow to perform code generation actions as in the EMF genmodel legacy editor.
GenModel owns information enough to generate code *AND* navigate to source.

User can come back to legacy Ecore editor at any time.
