Description Eugen Neufeld CLA 2018-05-16 04:31:52 EDT 
Currently the EMFForms View Model Editor doesn't allow to create a View Model for an abstract class or an interface.
This is needed to allow the creation of SubViews used by ViewProxies for SuperClasses of actual Classes.

It is now possible to create view models for abstract classes and these view models can be used in view proxies.

The Preview can show views for abstract classes with one exception:
It is not possible to add a new object to a reference which has an
EOpposite if the view's root EClass has an instance class (this is the
case if the code for the Ecore was generated).
Besides this, the preview works fine for abstract root EClasses.
