[news.eclipse.tools.emf] Re: Question re href and @children

Hi Alan,

I think the same problem (with a couple of solutions) is described at http://docs.google.com/Doc?id=dfg3r46h_49ft6r3kg9 .

Also, take a look at my collection of links on EMF UUIDs: http://roman.porotnikov.org.ua/2008/12/eclipse-modeling-and-uuids.html

Hello,

I am having a strange issue with hrefs.
I have 2 resources.
In the first I have a number of Object As which contains a collection of Object Bs (containment = true)
(I also have something things above A but we'll focus on A and B for example)
In the second I have a reference to a collection of Object Bs (containment = false)


The href for one of the Object Bs in the second resource reads like this:
href="resource1.config#//@children.2/@children.3/@myobjectBs.0

The issue arises when I delete an Object A.
In the first resource it is now found at @children.2/@children.2
instead of at @children.2/@children.3
This only occurs if I delete an Object A that was not the last created one.
In other words it seems as if that format is like an index.
So when I delete one Object A any ObjectAs created after it have their "indexes" updated.


However the second resource does not update to reflect this.

So when I try to restart the application the collection of ObjectBs from resource 2 does not find an object.

I confirmed that this was what was happening by changing the reference manually in the xml file of the second resource
So If I change index to reflect resource 1 it works fine.


I tried making sure that resource1 was saved first and then resource2 but it made no difference.

Has anyone any ideas as to why this is happening an how I might fix it ?

thanks,
Alan.
