Description Paul Elder

This is a regression for EMF 2.5 and earlier.

EClass.isSuperTypeOf() and EClass.getEAllSuperTypes() no longer include/recognize the EObject eClass.

Attaching JUnits that demonstrate the problem. They work in EMF 2.4 & 2.5, but fail in EMF 2.6

Junit demonstrating problems

Attaching JUnit. 
Pre-2.6, getEAllSuperTypes for EPackage returned:

EObject, EModelElement, ENamedElement

With 2.6, it returns:

EModelElement, ENamedElement

This is not limited to EPackage. Every UML2 type and ECore type now excludes EObject.

This is intentional.  See the discussion in https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=255469.
