| Re: [modisco-dev] Problems discovering a model from Java code |
Hi
In principle, if you have a non-model-to-model problem, MoDisco is the
correct approach.
Unfortunately the original enthusiasts who developed MoDisco have moved
on and so MoDisco is now just supported by me. I stepped up to stop what
I perceive to be an important part of the modelling infrastructure
vanishing even though I have never actually used it.
Well done for finding the duplicate. Main comments on the bug. So
trivial I cannot not fix it.
(A pity you didn't report it a couple of weeks ago; MoDisco 1.5.3 is now
pretty much frozen prior to official release on 6 Dec.)
Regards
Ed Willink
