Reverse engineering Java collections

[mbc]

Hi everybody

I am a long time user (8+ years, I think) of EA for C++, but now I am just starting to use it with Java.


When I reverse engineer this:

Code: [Select]

public class MyFirstClass {
      protected List<MySecondClass> myListOfObjects = new ArrayList<MySecondClass>();
}

public class MySecondClass {
}

then I would expect a diagram with 2 classes with an association from MyFirstClass to MySecondClass with *-multiplicity.
However, no association is created. I have tried setting "List" as "default collection class" in Java code generation options, but apparently that makes no difference.

I hope someone has a solution to this. I have not been active on this forum for years, but back in the day Geoff Sparks and his people were always very quick with helpful replies.

Best regards,
Mikkel

Generics are not supported for reverse engineering.
You are the n'th user who needs it.
