				Hi All,
 
 
I need to put some descriptive text in V6 message mappings resp. *.msgmap files (not necessarily via the mapping editor).
 
 
Is anybody aware of a (generic) possibility to enter some kind of comment or description in V6 message mappings?
 
Are there any such elements/attributes in the xml source that are preserved during re-saving the mappings?
 
 
Thanks,
 
Daniel |

<!-- Add this in your .msgmap file with your own text after the first line, just this is the syntax for writing comments in XML --> |

				But it's a poor idea to manually edit the mapping file, or even really edit it outside the mapping editor. _________________ I am *not* the model of the modern major general. |

				The .msgmap file has a 1-1 relationship with the corresponding mapping node. You can place comments in the description of the mapping node. _________________ Jan Fluitsma

Jeff, adding comments in .msgmap will impact any thing else? |

				Hi,
 
thanks for your answers...
 
 
XML comments are removed once you re-save the map using the graphical mapping editor.
 
 
I found out, however, that "eAnnotation" elements below the "maplang:MapOperation" elements are preserved by the mapping editor:
 
 
<maplang:MapOperation name="I010_IVT_Mapping" ...
 
 ...
 
 <eAnnotations source="http://www.eclipse.org/emf/2002/GenModel">
 
  <details key="MQSI_META" value="TEST2"/>
 
 </eAnnotations>
 
  ...
 
</maplang:MapOperation> |
