Description Henning Heitkoetter CLA 2010-09-09 11:57:06 EDT 
A genmodel with runtime version set to 2.4 can generate a broken validator class in EMF 2.6: a validate method references the method validate_EveryBidirectionalReferenceIsPaired, which is available only since 2.6 (?).

This happens because of the structure of the following if-statement in GenClassImpl.getIntrinsicConstraints:
	if (runtimeVersion <= GenRuntimeVersion.EMF22_VALUE)
    {
      result.remove("EveryKeyUnique");
      result.remove("EveryMapEntryUnique");
    }
	else if (runtimeVersion < GenRuntimeVersion.EMF25_VALUE)
	{
      result.remove("NoCircularContainment");
	}
	else if (runtimeVersion < GenRuntimeVersion.EMF26_VALUE)
	{
      result.remove("EveryBidirectionalReferenceIsPaired");
	}
	
To me it seems - without knowing the history - that both "else" are wrong and should be removed, so that there are three distinct if statements (emulating a switch with fall-through).
