[news.eclipse.modeling.mdt.uml2] Re: DerivedSubsetEList won't be generat

[Timothy Marc <timothymarc@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Kenn,

of course... again, i refer to the Package::ownedTypes containment of 
Figure 7.14 in the UML2 spec.

When i generate the corresponding code, it looks like this:

public EList<Type> getOwnedTypes() {
	// TODO: implement this method to return the 'Owned Type' reference list
	// Ensure that you remove @generated or mark it @generated NOT
	throw new UnsupportedOperationException();
}

but it should look like this:

public EList<Type> getOwnedTypes() {
	return new DerivedSubsetEObjectEList<Type>(Type.class, this, 		 
TestingPackage.PACKAGE__OWNED_TYPE, OWNED_TYPE_ESUPERSETS);
}

Well, it was not hard to implement this if you understand how the UML 
list framework works, but i was wondering, why the generator is not 
capable to generate it. Almost any information, that is necessary, is 
avialable in the model, i think.

Thx
Timothy
