Build Identifier: 201109282102

EDT throws runtime exception in the date testing:
Multiple markers at this line
	- IWN.JavaGen.9999.e 12/207 Stack Trace: java.lang.RuntimeException: org.eclipse.edt.mof.egl.NoSuchFunctionError
	- IWN.JavaGen.9998.e 12/207 Exception occurred: java.lang.RuntimeException: 
	 org.eclipse.edt.mof.egl.NoSuchFunctionError

Please confirm if it is working by design in EDT, if not, please fix the issue.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Create a EDT basic project "abc".
2.Copy the attachment "DateTest.egl" to the project.
3.Turn on the Java Generator, and see the compile errors.

Comment 2 Brian Svihovec CLA 2011-10-03 15:54:03 EDT 
The error occurs on the following line:

diff int = date1 - date2;
Comment 3 Brian Svihovec CLA 2011-10-03 15:58:54 EDT 
This is being marked as critical because a lot of test cases will use the '-' operator for date and timestamp.
Comment 4 Paul Harmon CLA 2011-10-03 16:58:53 EDT 
This is not allowed in EDT. You will need to use the new daysDifferent() function that is defined for Date for this:

diff int = date1.daysDifferent(date2);

I am changing validation for this: changes committed to
