In my model I have an operation with a body that uses a
GregorianCalendar (image attached). The generated code is fine except
that there is no import at the beginning of the file, so this method has
an error that I have to manually fix by importing GregorianCalendar.

How can I annotate the model for such a simple thing as making sure that
the generator generates the following in its list of imports?

import java.util.GregorianCalendar;

Thanks for any assistance.

Mike,

You'd have an easier time if you use Xcore... In general in the bodies
you need to use fully qualified names. You can surround such a name
with <%%> to indicate you want it imported, e.g., <%a.b.C%> will result
in an import of a.b.C and the use of C in the body, assuming there isn't
some other conflicting import of C, in which case the fully qualified
name is used in the body.

That worked perfectly (and cleaned up the bodies where I had remembered
to use the fully qualified names). Thank you.

Have not heard of Xcore - barely climbing the initial EMF learning
curve. Will take a look. Thanks for the suggestion.
