Magicdraw EMF UML2 export [message #1037970]

Hi,

We use Magicdraw 17.0.1 and export our model in "EMF UML v3.x". Then, we load the "*.uml" files in Eclipse to transform the model and generate code.

It works fine with Eclipse 3.7 and MDT UML2 3.0.0.

With Eclipse 3.8 and MDT UML2 4.0.0 all the comments (instance from uml::Comment) are lost because Magicdraw writes them as XML attributes (body="my comment body") and Eclipse 3.8 needs them as XML elements (<body>my comment body</body>) whereas Eclipse 3.7 can read both.

What can we do ?
Thanks for help.

This sounds like a regression. Could you open a bug report and attach a
representative sample?

Hi

If you're using legacy formats you should use 4.0.2 rather than 4.0.0.
Probably won't help with the comment problem but it may avoid other
known issues.
