Description Caspar D. CLA 2011-04-25 23:48:53 EDT 
Currently our cross-resource containment behavior is not
EMF compliant. It's unclear what the justfication is for the current 
behavior, and so this behavior could reasonably be considered a bug.

The question is: how *should* cross-resource containment behave, 
especially when an object is moved from one resource to another, and
how should this depend on the values for the 'Containment proxies'
parameter in the genmodel, and the 'resolvesProxies' attribute on
a containment reference in the ecore model?

See bug 343471 for the discussion that led up to this, and which
describes the current erratic behavior.

It would be good to have a number of test cases that can be run for pure EMF (e.g. XML) or CDO...
Comment 2 Eike Stepper CLA 2012-06-05 07:29:42 EDT 
Moving all open bug reports to 4.1 because the release is very near and it's hghly unlikely that there will be spare time to address 4.0 problems.

Please make sure that your patches can be applied against the master branch and that your problem is not already fixed there!!!
Comment 3 Eike Stepper CLA 2012-08-14 22:55:52 EDT 
Moving all open issues to 4.2. Open bugs can be ported to 4.1 maintenance after they've been fixed in master.

No activity or ping here for years. Please reopen this bug if you feel a need.
