[news.eclipse.modeling.amalgam] Re: Unable to add a reference to Ecore E

[jeanmimib@xxxxxxxxx (Jean Michel Boulcourt)]

Yes, I use the Ganymede version.
1. I open the tooltip.ecore with "Sample Reflective Ecore Model Editor"
2. I load runtime version of ecore mode (using right-click "load resource")
3. I create a EReference named textAttribute in Tooltip class
4. I try to set the EType of textAttribute to EAttribute, but it is not 
proposed in the list box (I only have EObject)
