The XMI standard does not mention default settings and we need to be careful not to damage interoperability - but you are right in the case of the <XMI.extensions>. Which default settings are saved which shouldn't be? > Which default settings are saved which shouldn't be?
Well, if you're using the new C++ and Java generators then the
<XMI.extensions><codegeneration> makes rather verbose output
and also contains a fair amount of redundant info. In fact,
for medium to large size projects I simply don't use the new
generators because the files become too large.

I found it a bit annoying, to tell the truth. If you're concerned about file size, running the file via gzip provides huge benefits (~90 percent reduction in file size). > but you are right in the case of the <XMI.extensions>. Definitely, it's Umbrello-specific after all. Thank you for the bug report. As this report hasn't seen any changes in 5 years or more, we ask if you can please confirm that the issue still persists. If this bug is no longer persisting or relevant please change the status to resolved. |
