Custom Code Overridden - Generator Model [message #1243193]

Hey,

I use a mwe script to generate code...e.g.:

 component = org.eclipse.emf.mwe2.ecore.EcoreGenerator
  {
    generateCustomClasses = false
    genModel = "platform:/.../gen.genmodel"
    srcPath = "platform:/.../src"
  }

However, this causes my custom added code (in the Java classes) to be overriden, even though I have @generated NOT or just add a Method in the class.

Any ide how this can be avoided? Thanks!

Create a class PersonImplCustom extends PersonImpl in the same
package and customize the code there

Hi,

I'm aware of this option, but I'm talking about code that are added in the "original" Java classes. This code is overriden, which is not desirable. Is there an option or something than can be used in the mwe-script?
