Serialization of EType Parameter [message #1248609]

I have an ecore model with the usage of generics. The generated code works fine so far. But when I serialize the model, then the generic type information isn't contained in xml file.
Is it possible to get this information also in the serialized file?

You mean instances of your model not the Ecore model itself...

It's not clear what you're expecting. Keep in mind that type parameters
in Java don't exist at runtime. I.e., given an instance new
ArrayList<Integer>(), there's no way to determine that it's anything
other than a java.util.ArrayList.class at runtime.

No, just as it isn't possible purely with Java...
