Description Ed Willink CLA 2014-03-03 03:29:48 EST 
Existing generated UML packages such as SysML have an auto-generated

		// Initialize simple dependencies
		L2Package.eINSTANCE.eClass();

in SysmlPackageImpl.java.

This cuases a run-time failure against the new UML 2.5.0 support.

Suggest providing dummy legacy classes such as L2Package that just extend the new StandardProfilePackage and so enable old code work.

This is a major release of UML2 which does not promise backwards compatibility. Compile errors like this are a great way of identifying things that need to be migrated to the new API.
