    - #### add

          default void add​(org.eclipse.emf.ecore.EObject container,
                           org.eclipse.emf.ecore.EStructuralFeature reference,
                           java.util.Collection<? extends java.lang.Object> elements)
                    throws ModelManipulationException

      Adds a collection of existing elements to a selected EStructuralFeature. If the feature is an EReference, it must not be a containment reference.
      Throws:
        `ModelManipulationException`

    - #### addTo

          void addTo​(org.eclipse.emf.ecore.EObject container,
                     org.eclipse.emf.ecore.EStructuralFeature reference,
                     java.util.Collection<? extends java.lang.Object> elements)
              throws ModelManipulationException

      Adds a collection of existing elements to a selected EStructuralFeature. If the feature is an EReference, it must not be a containment reference.
      Throws:
        `ModelManipulationException`

    - #### addAllTo

          default void addAllTo​(org.eclipse.emf.ecore.EObject container,
                                org.eclipse.emf.ecore.EStructuralFeature reference,
                                java.util.Collection<? extends java.lang.Object> elements)
                         throws ModelManipulationException

      Description copied from interface: `IEcoreManipulations`
      Adds a collection of existing elements to a selected EStructuralFeature. If the feature is an EReference, it must not be a containment reference.
      Specified by:
        `addAllTo` in interface `IEcoreManipulations<org.eclipse.emf.ecore.resource.Resource,​org.eclipse.emf.ecore.EObject>`
