Hello,

I'm trying to set some java code into a declared operation in an class.
I did create an annotation with source "http://www.eclipse.org/emf/2002/GenModel" and key "body" and added my code as value. When the code gets generated I'm missing some imports that I need in the operation body code. Is there anotder key where I can definde the missing imports?

Is there any other way to import the referenced classes or do I have to use the ugly FQNs?

Body annotations are processed by org.eclipse.emf.codegen.ecore.genmodel.impl.GenBaseImpl.indentAndImport(String, String) and it looks for "<%" and "%> brackets. So you can specify for example <%a.b.C%> and if there is so import conflict for "C", you'll end with an import and the sort name in the body. Also, you can use <%java.util.Map$Entry%> so that java.util.Map will be imported and Map.Entry will be the short name used.
