[news.eclipse.tools.emf] Re: EReference on a default ID

[Ed Merks <Ed.Merks@xxxxxxxxx>]

Guillaume,

The ID must be set to used.  Are you suggesting you made "default" the 
default value for the id attribute?  That's not a good idea, because if 
there is more than one 'A' they will have the same ID value, which is 
invalid, and so you'll still have to set it.
