interface should not have supertype of eany
Comment 1 Paul Harmon CLA 2011-10-24 12:10:28 EDT 
I can not make this change, because doing so would mean that interface types would not be compatible with the Any type. So, you would not be able to compare and interface to an Any, or pass an interface to an ANY function parm.

The generator should be changed so that any supertypes that are not org.eclipse.edt.mof.egl.Interface objects should be ignored. In this case, the EAny would be an externalType.
