Hi, (excuse me for my english)

I found a problem when reusing the model's name in a class's name.

Here an example :

model : Library.ecore
a class in the model : LibraryClass1

After generating the editor, the UI indicate only Class1.

I have noted that the file plugin.properties contain this error.
ex: _UI_LibraryClass1_type = Class1

Is this a bug, a naming convention or do i have to handle manually this problem ?

Merci d'avance.

Hi,

You can change the type-name label that is generated for your EClass in
the plugin.properties file of your model's edit plug-in. EMF will not
overwrite your change if and when you later re-generate the model.

Look for the _UI_LibraryClass1_type key in the plugin.properties.

HTH,

Christian
