XSD to ECore changing element class [message #1161719] Wed, 30 October 2013 00:37 Go to next message
Eclipse UserFriend
Generating a model from a XSD and have used the ecore:name annotation to
successfully change the names of generated ECore classes in types and
attributes, but have no luck doing it for elements.

For example I have an:


<xs:element name="ProgramStatusType" ecore:name="ProgramStatus">

but the generated class comes out:
ProgramStatusTypeType.class

Also note that in the ecore model I see extended metadata like this:
Value ProgramStatusType_._type

Am I using the right annotation in the XSD to change the names of
elements or have I missed something?

thanks for any help,
John

Elements don't map to EClasses so such an annotation would only change
the name of a feature...

There must be an anonymous complex type involved so that's where you
should put the name annotation.

I imagine it's just not in the right place...

Thanks Ed, Moving the annotations to the anonymous types does the trick.
