I am currently upgrading my generator projects from Xtext 2.0.1 to 2.2.1 and have the following incompatibility:
In my Xtext, I have defined
enum CType: bool="bool" | int="int" | uint="uint" | double="double";
In my Xtend module, I use the expression
ctype.name // where ctype is of type CType
With Xtext 2.0.1, the translated Java code is
String _name_6 = _name_5.getName();
and returns e.g. "bool".
With Xtext 2.2.1, the translated Java code is
String _name_4 = _name_3.name();
which contradicts the tooltip (this indicates name being equivalent to CType.getName())
and name() is not defined for the CType enum, so it's the method of java.lang.Enum
and returns e.g. "BOOL".
Was this an intended change?

Hi Nikolai,
yes, the linking is correct and was wrong in the old version.
However the content assist still is wrong and shouldn't suggest getName
using its short form since that is shadowed by name().
The precedence is
1) name with parenthesis
2) name without parenthesis
3) property name
A bugzilla for the content assist problem would be very helpful.
Cheers,
Sven
