Hello,
I have a problem when I save my editor after a modification done with IHM.
I loose the comments which were previously in the file. When I execute my
doSave() method, I get my resources to save it, but I don't get the
comments.
How can I get them, have we an option to do this?

Thx for your help,
David

David,

EMF will preserve comments only if they occur for complex types with
mixed content. Generally, if comments are imported, they should be part
of the model, rather than floating around in the white space...

Ed,
If I understand what you say, I have to add the comment like an attibute
in my complex type.
But my problem is that users comment some part of xml to realise a test,
and they modify some attributes with the IHM. And when he save, it remove
the commented part.

David.

David,

Nevertheless, we only maintain comments for complex types with mixed
content. In all other cases we treat it as whitespace and ignore it.
