Should UML model be saved as EMF annotations in the java code ? [message #682867]

There is today a dilema on how to save UML model information when dealing with Java.

Do you think that saving UML model such as EMF annotations in the java code is a good practice ?

I think that it is a mistake to mix both java and model information in the code because:
- adding annotations is changing the original code format. The code gets dirty
- if the code is refactored then model information could be lost.

If you need more information to contribute to the current discussion you can have a look at a good documentation that I found at: http://www.vogella.de/articles/EclipseEMF/article.html

Let me know your point of view and let's talk about it !!
