Description Gordan Vosicki CLA 2013-03-05 03:03:11 EST 
I think this is self-explanatory, {@link T} points to nothing:

public interface ListFacet<T> extends Facet {

    /**
     * Returns the value of the '<em><b>List</b></em>' containment reference list.
     * The list contents are of type {@link T}.
     * <!-- begin-user-doc -->


Correction: replace {@link T} by "T" or {@link java.lang.Object} (or the real superclass, if there is one).

Comment 2 Ed Merks CLA 2013-05-21 23:06:27 EDT 
The idea from the first comment in https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=408617 is a good one, i.e., this sentence is really not necessary when generating for Java 1.5 so could be conditional in the template.
Comment 3 Gordan Vosicki CLA 2013-05-22 01:45:46 EDT 
I agree that the comment is not necessary if the return type contains the type parameter.
Comment 5 Ed Merks CLA 2013-09-10 02:15:06 EDT 
The fix is available in the 2.9.1 service release or a 2.10 milestone build.
