Quickest way to change getter names that are generated [message #1758133]

Hi,

What is the quickest away to change generated method from lets say, EObject[] getXXX() to EObject[] getXXXArray()? I don't want to go through generated code and manually change needed methods by appending 'Array' to them, I need this change to permanent so that if I need to regenerate the code, the getters will have new names.

Thanks,
Alex

You could change the feature name from xXX to xXXArray, or define an EOperation with the name getXXXArray() with a body annotation that calls the differently named method.

Thanks Ed,

Is there a way to make something global for whole genmodel - if I set 'Array Accessors' to true, then generate methods with custom pattern, like getXXXArray()?
