Hi All,
In e4, we run into a problem with generic type in runtime. It seems the
generic types lost in runtime same as standard generic of Java .
For example, we have a class MMenu,
public interface MMenu extends MUIElement, MElementContainer<MMenuItem> {
}
I cannot find the MMenuItem type in the EClass MMenu during the runtime, and
we can add what ever we want through the generic API like
menu.getChildrend().add(anObject);
Can someone confirm the observation? Is there a way to get the generic
type.?
Regards
Yves YANG

I'm not sure the type of his feature.

Yes, it does work pretty much like Java. You can get at the generic
type information in the model itself, but an EObject will only answer
its EClass, not an EGenericType.
