Hi all,

I have been writing EVL for my GMF model in Eclipse Indigo, and I believe that having white space in the project the model is stored in causes quick fixes to not be found properly.

For instance, I have two files
<workspace-directory>/Blah Blah Blah/sample.mymodel_diagram
and
<workspace-directory>/BlahBlahBlah/sample.mymodel_diagram

These files are created programmatically and contain both the model and diagram. They are equivalent (only differences are the xmi:id attributes)

When I try to perform a quick fix on the "Blah Blah Blah" diagram, I only get Ignore as a fix option. When I try to perform a quick fix on the "BlahBlahBlah" diagram, it works just fine and shows me the expected quick fix in addition to Ignore.

I read through this post and found someone else talking about whitespace in their workspace path.

So my questions are this:
Is this a real bug, and if so has it already been reported?
Has this behavior changed since the latest Indigo-based release of GMF?
Is there some workaround that I could implement to fix this?

Thanks,
-Stephen
