xhtml markup in Comment body [message #476735]

I need to find a way to include "rich text" in UML comment body using xhtml
markup tags. Only a limited set of tags will be used most of the time
(e.g., <p> <b> <i> <ul> and maybe <table>). Any suggestions on how to make
this work using EMF resources?

Is there a way to load and save UML resources, leaving the xhtml markup as
DOM elements? Or is it necessary to create an EMF model for xhtml, so that
UML comments will include a reference to a second xhtml model EObjects? Is
this even allowed by the UML metamodel?

I found this w3c work on creating XSD for xhtml. Has anyone attempted an
EMF model from these schemas?

Thanks for any advice,
Dave Carlson

Dave,

I think you could do it using demand created metadata and embed that
data as an instance of AnyType within the contents feature of an
EAnnotation.

Binding XML to Java

UMLResourceFactoryImpl already uses the extended metadata option so I
think it should just work.
