Title: keep namepace when type is selected
Post by: aloeffen on June 08, 2011, 12:24:43 am
Hi,
i've been working for  some time with EA. Today I found that it was impossible to assign a type to a class attribute, by selecting a type T from a package B when the same type T (i.e. with that exact name) was defined in the current package A. So, the "naming conflict" (which should be resolved by namespacing) seems not to work for attributes. It does work for associations.

Is this correct?

The help file states: If required, in the Go To Namespace field select a namespace to reduce the scope of the displayed hierarchy. The dialog opens the section of the hierarchy associated with that namespace, and closes all previously-open sections associated with other namespaces.

This seems to indicate that namespacing should be active.

Any thoughts?
