Hi,

 

In Eclipse 4diac we have a library of model elements and application examples to help our users getting started with 4diac. The models are stored in a dedicated XML format. This would allow to just add the classic Eclipse copyright header as XML comment.

 

The problem that I now see is that when the model is loaded in 4diac and stored again this header is currently not preserved. So using that approach for the copyright header is quite cumbersome. Adding code to handle this would be quite challenging I think.

 

The model we are using has dedicated fields for comments, which are intended for describing the model and also a version entry. These could be used to add copyright notices. Especially the latter seams suitable.

 

Is there a best practice for such a use case? What are experiences of other projects?

 

Cheers,

Alois
