C# generics for multiple relationship support?

[tmanthey]

Hi,

I would like to see that a multiple relationship generates a
List<LinkedClass> linkedClass member.

How can I do that?

Thanks,
Tobias

I followed the link but I could not see any information on how to handle Generics or "typed List". Can you give me another hint?

Hello there,
there is a bug in EA 8 (build 864).
The #TYPE# trick from:
http://www.sparxsystems.com/enterprise_architect_user_guide/8.0/software_development/settingcollectionclasses.html
works only when set in:
Tools | Options | Source Code Engineering | JAVA/C# | Collection Classes

Same here, not helpful for me. I'm probably ignorant of the proper terminology but even following the link and experimenting for 15 minutes I'm not able to generate Java code where an attribute like
 
"List<int>listOfInts;"

It always just generates "int listofInts".

I've tried every combination of multiplicity, specifying it's a collection etc. but it always generates "int listOfInts".

Likewise I'd like to know if there is a way to modify whatever template is used so that it will generate something like:

"final List<int>listOfInts = new ArrayList<int>();

I've done multiple searches of forums and manuals and I don't find anything helpful.

Since you're wanting a list of int, the only way the linked page will apply is if you have a class in your model called int.  You would then set up an association to that class and have collection classes set up.

Regarding the change of template, I was going to say how to change your template, but then I realised the type being created doesn't match the type of the variable.  Where do you propose specifying that difference?
