Parameters:

featurePath - the value property to observe. May be nested e.g. "parent.name"

Returns:

a master-detail combination of this property and the specified value property.

IEMFMapProperty values(IEMFValueProperty property)

Returns a master-detail combination of this property and the specified value property. The returned property will observe the specified value property for all elements observed by this set property, mapping from this set property's elements (keys) to the specified value property's value for each element (values).

Example:

 // Observes the set-typed "children" property of a Person object,
 // where the elements are Person objects
 IEMFSetProperty children = EMFProperties.set(MyPackage.Literals.PERSON_CHILDREN);
 // Observes the string-typed "name" property of a Person object
 IEMFValueProperty name = EMFProperties.value(MyPackage.Literals.PERSON_NAME);
 // Observes a map of children objects to their respective names.
 IEMFMapProperty childrenNames = children.values(name);
 

Parameters:

property - the detail property to observe

Returns:

a master-detail combination of this property and the specified value property.
