[mdt.dev] RE: [emf-dev] Tip for using the new 'galileo' flag for EclipseEMF/MDTPlan Queries

Sorry, I shouldn't have said "render"... what I meant to day was that the bug lists are all empty whereas if I take the same query and run it in a browser, I get the expected list back. So, it's similar to the problem that Christian said he had overcome, but even after making the same changes, I can't get my bugs to show up.

Cheers,

Looking at the OCL plan, I see "anticipated OCL® 2.1 revised specification from the OMG(tm)"

This could be recoded like this, so it's more cross-platform:

anticipated OCL&#174; 2.1 revised specification from the OMG<sup>TM</sup>

Also, make sure that all your URLs have &amp; instead of &. For a quick 
'does this page render?' check, open it in Firefox. It'll tell you the 
line that's causing the problem and often point you to the error, too.
