Hi!

Im able to get annotations with

obj.eClass().eAnnotations

However, I need something like

TYPE.eAnnotations

Where TYPE is a an class of my model.

Though TYPE seems to be an EClassImpl it says "Unrecognized variable: (eAnnotations)"

This code is for Acceleo.

solved.

Simply cast the type to an EClass:

TYPE.oclAsType(ecore::EClass).eAnnotations

Hi

You didn't provide the declaration for TYPE so do not explain why it is not an EModelElement. Most likely its static type is EObject for which EMF removed the helpful, but wrong subtyping of EModelElement perhaps 10 years ago. Once to cast to at least EModelElement, you can access its features.
