Issue 1075:  Type of Facility.MofRepository.packageFactory incompatible with its purpos (mof-rtf)
Source:  (, )
Nature:  Uncategorized Issue
Severity: 
Summary: Summary: Facility.MofRepository.packageFactory is of type
 Reflective.RefPackage.  Its purpose is to provide the object
 needed to instantiate a ModelPackage -- the set of
 class-proxy and package-proxy objects needed to create and
 manage Mof models.  It is expected to return a an object of
 type Model.ModelPackageFactory.  However,
 Model.ModelPackageFactory does not derive from
 Reflective.RefPackage.  So this attribute cannot provide its
 described capability.
 
 Suggest changing the type of this attribute to
 Model.ModelPackageFactory.  The MofRepository package is
 specific to the Mof, and does not require defining this
 factory object in any generic manner.
