Description Grégory Oliver

Build Identifier: 20100218-1602

My request is the possibility to use the ecore model to create uml diagram.
For this I use a genmodel. 
But if I update my ecore model, and regenerate my uml model, I lost references for my old uml model, and all my uml diagram are unusable.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.create an Ecore Model with few elements, like a class.
2.create an EMF Generator Model using the ecore model above
3.right click on the genmodel file > Export model to UML model
4.right click on the uml model > initialise Class Diagram
5.open and see that everything is ok
6.add a new class in the ecore model
7. right click on the genmodel > reload the genmodel
8. right click on the genmodel > Export to Uml model
9. open the umlclass diagram 
an "Unresolved domain element" is show and the diagram is unusable.

One easy way to support this would be to add a new conversion option that assigns "consumable" XMI identifiers to the resulting UML elements, similar to what is done by the "convert to metamodel" example action.

The changes have been committed/pushed to the 'master' branch in git.

The changes are now available in a Kepler integration build for UML2 4.1.0.
