Description Ed Willink

Using the uml25 branch standalone accesses to the .../4.0.0/Types package fail since UMLResourcesUtil.initPackageRegistry has no 4.0.0 registrations.

As noted in an earlier report, rather than UMLResourcesUtil becoming a steadily larger flaky inextensible enumeration, it would be much better to put all the version specifics in a common per-version place e.g. xxx2UMLResource, so that initialization is just a loop over an extensible list of all known xxx2UMLResource classes. This would allow UML 2.6 developers to just add their new xxx2UMLResource to the list via API or extension point and be up and running.

Thanks, Ed. I was going to make all of the changes to the resources bundle (e.g., update reference libraries, etc.) all at once but if you're going to be testing things early (and it's much appreciated), I'll endeavor to make changes as I go.

I've committed/pushed a fix for this issue to the 'uml25' branch in git.

I'll only exercise when prodded.

This particular attempt was to see if there were any breaking API changes to immediately make me abandon a non-major version change for OCL.
