Hey all,

I'm playing a little bit with the genmodel to screw myself deeper into that
topic, therefore, i've changed some settings in the genmodel, which
obviously had no effect for my model.

1. Root Implements Interface: I've entered a qualified interface name to let
my root model element automatically implement this interface. But when i
regenerated, no change had been applied to the root model element.

2. File Extensions (Package): I've a Package named 'Foundation', whih
contains my root model element. I use the Wizard of this package to create a
new model instance. By default, the file extension of ny new created model
by the wizard gets the extension .foundation (in my case). I thought, this
could be changed by defining a different entry in the File Extensions
property. Obviously, it isn't so, and my question is, whether it is possible
to apply a extension to a package that differs from the package name?

Okay, "some questions" was a bit overstated, actually there are only 2
questions. But any hints or information are appreciated.

Thx
Timothy

This has an effect only when the Root Extends Class isn't already in the
hierarchy. I.e., it's assumed that the Root Extends Class implements
the Root Implements Interface so only if you extend a model with a
different Root Extends Class is the Root Implements Interface going to
have an impact.

Keep in mind that the plugin.xml is not regenerated and that
plugin.properties values of existing properties are not changed, so you
need to delete those or change them manually.
