[EMF Compare] Broken Reference triggers a diff [message #120699]

I am curious about something: let's say my model can reference other model
files. Let's consider two models A and B, both refering to C.

I have one instance of A and C in the same folder
I have one instance of B in another folder

The reference to C is relative to the same folder in both cases. Now it
seems the diff engine consider that A and B are different, since the
reference in B is not resolved. In fact A and B are similar, so I would
think there should be no diff there. The fact that the reference is broken
is something independent from the model content.

Something worse is that if I copy C in the folder where B is, I still get a
diff on the C reference.

Thanks,

David

David,

This is a know bug (I wonder if a bugzilla has been filed for it though
since we often get this feedback) which we are still trying to find a
way to solve "elegantly" ;).

Feel free to raise a new bugzilla for this if you can't find an existant
one.
