Hi,

I have been eagerly following the progress of the UML2 feature set in MyEclipse, and am quite happy so far. It's just that the reverse engineering and code generation does not handle collections at all...

Am I missing something or is this functionality still to be added?

Cheers,
Harry

Harry,
Yes we do support this functionality. If you have a property of collection type - List<String> in the Java file. After RE, you will get the property generated - for instance names: List<String>. In the model it is represented as a DataType with a name - List<String>.

Hi,

Just tried MyEclipse 8.5 for this feature but it still does not exactly do what I expect...

Say I have a Class1 that has a property of type List<Class2> (or any other collection for that matter). When I generate a class model for these two classes I would expect to see an association between Class1 and Class2 with a *-cardinality on the Class2 end. MyEclipse does not render (or generate) such an association.

I found an earlier post on this forum (2007) saying that generics were not supported yet. It seems to me generics are still not supported. Am I wright or still missing something?

Regards,

Hi,

Sorry for the inconvenience.
We support the Parameterised collections (List<Class> myClass). But right now we dont generate the dependency relationship to reprent such relations. I'll discuss this with our Dev team and let you know the time frame when we can deliver this.

Thanks,
Chakri Vedula.
