[news.eclipse.tools.emf] Re: Cannot serialize attribute editable

[Ed Merks <merks@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Balaji,

Yes. You can set the Rose Ecore property unsettable to true, i.e., you can make
it an unsettable attribute by making sure the EStructuralFeature.unsettable is
set to true.  You will get isSet/unsetMethods as a result and you will be able
to tell the difference between being false by default and being set to false
explicitly.
