[news.eclipse.modeling.gmf] Incremental GMF code generation not working reliably

Hi,


we're presently using GMF 2.0 M3 and we have some severe issues with incremental code generation.


A very simple case is for instance to add an attribute in the ecore model, change a related mapping in gmfmap and then regenerate everything (according to "normal procedure" - regenerate the generator model, generate diagram code etc.).

It is obvious though that source files which should be regenerated due to these changes are "sometimes" not, i.e. some IParserProvide implementations, some of which have @generated NOT methods.

The only workaround so far is to safe any manually modified files, delete everything, regenerate and merge the manual changes back in, but that's quite cumbersome.

Is this a known issue and/or is there some way to force the code generator to regenerate everything to avoid that some previously generated files are not touched even if the should get regenerated ?


Thanks, Armin
