Description Simon Bernard CLA 2008-01-22 04:53:08 EST 
when you edit cardinility in the diagram, you must type min..max .
It could have some exception for typing and display
 1 for 1..1
 2 for 2..2
 3 for 3..3
 ...
and    
 * for 0..*
Comment 1 David Sciamma CLA 2008-01-22 05:55:20 EST 
Simon, can you propose a patch ?
But we need to only accept valid cardinalities for Ecore :
0..1
0..*
1..*
and perhaps some others

Comment 3 Jacques LESCOT CLA 2009-04-20 09:39:58 EDT 
Fixed.

Now, we provide some "shortcuts" when editing cardinalities through the Editable cell editor in the diagram :
- 0..* instead of 0..-1
- 1..? instead of 1..-2
- 1 instead of 1..1
- 3 instead of 3..3
- ...

Note that I did not use * instead of 0..*, so that it reflects icon used for an EAttribute with the same cardinality.
