Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  * USERS AFFECTED:  Users of eXtreme Scale who define plug-ins  *
  *                  that have a property of type long or        *
  *                  java.lang.Long.                             *
  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Long property types are not handled     *
  *                      properly, which can lead to incorrect   *
  *                      behavior for the plug-in class.         *

  * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
  ****************************************************************
  In Version 8.6 the code was converted from using Eclipse
  Modeling Format (EMF) to using Java Architecture for XML Binding
  (JAXB). During this conversion, the handling of handling of long
  and java.lang.Long as valid property types was inadvertently
  removed.
  The code was updated to correct this error.
  

Problem conclusion

• An interim fix is available for this problem for Version 8.6.0.3
