ExtendedMetaData problem with 'Same File For Diagram And Model' [message #173500]

I'm using GMF2.0 and have an editor producing domain and notation files
with
the expected xml.

My ecore model has a root node with an ExtendedMetaData that modifies the
outputted xml to produce a dash separated tag,
i.e "kind->element" and "name->my-root".

When "Same File For Diagram And Model" equals false in the gmfgen file,
everything is fine. The domain file has the expected 'my-root' tag.

When "Same File For Diagram And Model" equals true the generated
single merged xml file contains a domain fragment that no longer
conforms to the ExtendedMetaData directive and is camel-cased (ie MyRoot).

It is as if the ExtendedMetaData is ignored.
Is this a bug?

Hello Liam,

I think it's not possible to support arbitraty ExtendedMetaData then "same
file for..." option is on. AFAIK ExtendedMetaData is a way to make your file
conforming to some XML schema, but there is no place for diagram information
in this schema most likely..
In any case you should be able to modify this behaviour by changing resource
factory for diagram resource.
