Duplicate ESETFLAG values when >32 features/class. [message #1742933] Thu, 08 September 2016 15:55 Go to next message

When generating ecore model code (EMF Ecore Code Generator: 2.11.1.v20160208-0841), classes with >32 features contain duplicate ESETFLAG values . For example:

protected static final int PROPERTY_X_ESETFLAG = 1 << 24;
...
protected static final int PROPERTY_Y_EFLAG = 1 << 24;

As a result, when updating PROPERTY_X, ALL_FLAGS is updated to indicate that PROPERTY_Y has changed.

This appears to be a limitation in the EMF Code Generator since an integer is used for ALL_FLAGS, imposing a 32 'feature per class' restriction since an integer (32-bit) can only be left shifted 32 places.

Is there a work-around?

Create a bogus superclass to hold the first 24 features.

Thanks Ed for your suggestion. There are some problems with this work-around:

-We have 100+ features in some model classes.
-Our model classes are marshaled to tables in our relational data store.

Hi

Checking my own models, I find only one use of ESETFLAG, where a boolean needs to be 3-valued. If you are able to allow null, or some other distinctive unset value, you won't need the extra ESETFLAG bit to convert an N-valued domain to N+1 states.

Paul,

I returned your Bugzilla as invalid. Please invest at least minimal effort to describe the problem in enough detail that someone else in the world can reproduce it.

Ed M.,

I've reopened the defect and attached a test case to reproduce the symptom.

This symptom was caused by an internal code generation tool, which handles generating a consistent *.genmodel across the projects and invoking the EMF Ecore Code Generator to generate our ecore model code. Our product recently upgraded to Java 7 but the tool was not updated. After upgrading the tool to Java 7, the symptom is no longer reproducible.

Apologies Ed M. for opening this defect and thanks to Ed W. for your suggestions.
