Description Navid Mehregani CLA 2011-10-04 12:05:04 EDT 
Build Identifier: 

Certain annotation attributes need to reference other model components.  At the moment this is done by referencing the FQN/name of the model component as an EString type.  This is error prone and time consuming.  This enhancement will provide the ability to select specific model components in the UI.

Please see attached document for more details.

Reproducible: Always

First pass on annotations' reference attributes.

Supports backwards-compatible GUI over strings as well as new ModelReference model object. GUI customizations should be done by configuring/overriding ModelReferenceCellEditor. See o.e.t.annotation.example plugin for examples.

Does not support lists yet.
