Hello,

XSD from which I generate my model has annotation element with documentation in both element and compexType. When I generate the model I can get documentation via EcoreUtil.getDocumentation method for objects that were derived from complexType, but not for those that were derived from element. Is element annotation not supported? As far as I can see from w3.org having annotation documentation in element is legal.

Thanks,
Alex

Not sure about this terminology "object derived from complex type".
Each complex types maps to an EClass so I guess that's what you mean by
an object derived from a complex type...

And where specifically are you looking for that documentation? People
have a bad tendency to assume that elements map to EClasses, but they don't.

You might start by looking at your entire Ecore model as text to see all
the annotations with source="http://www.eclipse.org/emf/2002/GenModel"
and with a detail for key "documentation".
