Xtend - access the EnumLiterals - not possible [message #947495]

Hello all,

I have this following issue into one file.ext that I created to generate some code out of the ecore.

String getString(Type type):
switch (type) {
case Type::Running : "Running_type"
case Type::Waiting : "Waiting_type"
default : "default"
};

Type is an Enum in my ecore and has the EnumLiterals Running and Waiting. I receive the error in the editor : Callable not found:Unknown variable, type or enumeration literal
'Type::Running'.

I have added also the check for the JavaBeansMetamodel to have it activated.
When I access this getString from the Xpand, it always takes the default case, meaning the evaluation was not done for Running or Waiting.

Maybe someone has a clue what else should I do or what should I change in the above syntax.
I add also that I don't want the getType to have it used, because I want to customize the text that I generate.

Yes, the import is done OK, for other types it works and I also have a context help.
import machine;

and machine is the package name and also the ecore name
