Suppressing default validation messages [message #1715582]

Hi,

I am writing validation rules for my diagrams. Rules are evaluated correctly show meaningful and friendly messages as I want to. However, the validation also automatically validate my diagrams against my metamodel and therefore print default messages. These messages are not friendly at all in my opinion. e.g. "The required feature 'connection' of 'Composite1::Loop1' must be set. In addition, default messages and my messages both exist and they confuse users.

My question hence is whether it is possible to turn off or bypass or at least suppress the default messages.

Many thanks in advance

Hi,

No currently it is not possible, but to avoid that you can relax the
arity of your metamodel. For example instead of having lower and upper
bounds as [1..1] you could have [0..1] to avoid default messages from
EMF validation.
If you don't want to do that you can raise a enhancement bugzilla to
have option to trigger only validation on your defined validation rules.

Best Regards.
