Hi,

I'm constraining my metamodel incrementally and iteratively. That
is, although I've written almost all the constraints in the .ecore file
with the OCLInEcore editor, I've commented some constraints in order to
test them little by little. Once I've tested a small set of constraints,
I remove other comments, and so on. Well, at least that was my
intention, because I put between comments some constraints, I saved my
..ecore file and I closed Eclipse.

The problem is that when I have opened Eclipse again, all the
comments in my .ecore file have disappear. I don't know if this is a bug
or if comments are not allowed in the OCLInEcore editor. The editor
seems to recognize them, if you write one line comments with -- or more
than one line comments with /* */.


Thanks in advance,
Toñi

Hi Toni

It's not a bug, it's a feature.

If you want to save comments save the file as *.oclinecore via the
context menu at the root of the outline.
