Hi,
In my pull request, I have a class, FeatureTypeBinding, that extends
AbstractComplexEMFBinding. I need to access the EFactory instance within
the super class from FeatureTypeBinding. The AbstractComplexEMFBinding
class defines the factory field with package visibility, which hides this
field from this extending class.
To work around this, I've stored the EFactory object in a field in the
extending class as well and I use this field instead. This works, but Isn't
very elegant.
Should I make the field in AbstractComplexEMFBinding protected or perhaps
add a protected / public getter for it? Or is storing the EFactory in the
implementing class the preferred strategy?
Here's the commit and comment for reference:

Thanks,
Sampo
