I tried to reproduce it through various ways but couldn't, may be it was my image. I'll try to be more vigilant next time. In the meantime, I tried to reproduce the anomaly with this script, may be we can create a test (with a dummy class?)?

|model propertyName|

propertyName := 'isFlag'.

FAMIXMethod addInstVarNamed: propertyName.

FAMIXMethod compile: propertyName,

'<MSEProperty: #', propertyName,' type: #Boolean>

<MSEComment: ''A test flag''>

^', propertyName.

MooseModel resetMeta.

model := MooseModel new.

MoosePharoImporterTask new

importerClass: SmalltalkImporter;

doNotRunCandidateOperator; 

importingContext: (MooseImportingContext new importClass; importMethod; importPackage; yourself);

model: model;

addFromPackageNamed: #'Moose-TestResources-LAN';

run;

yourself.

model allMethods do: [ :each | each instVarNamed: propertyName put: true ].

model exportToMSEStream:(StandardFileStream forceNewFileNamed: 'aTestFile.mse').

MooseModel new importFromMSEStream:(StandardFileStream readOnlyFileNamed: 'aTestFile.mse') "should give an error because the propertyName: selector is absent"

I believe there is some sort of cache that is maintained somewhere because it works for me in the new image but if a property is added after exporting a model to a MSE file, it doesn't work.

Tx André for looking into it.

It worked for me Usman, no problem.

As a test do:

isFlag

<MSEProperty: #isFlag type: #Boolean>

<MSEComment: 'my flag'>

^ true

Then, MooseModel resetMeta.

It will export ok:

=======

(FAMIX.Method (id: 147)

(name 'clearReplacements')

(cyclomaticComplexity 1)

(isFlag true)

(modifiers 'public')

(numberOfComments true)

(numberOfConditionals 0)

=======

Most probably your #isFlag property is nil, then it is not exported in the MSE file

I create a new property in a MooseEntity.

isFlag

<MSEProperty: #isFlag type: #Boolean>

<MSEComment: 'An exemplary flag'>

^ isFlag

I do MooseModel resetMeta.

I export the model with the entity containing the flag to an MSE.

isFlag property is absent in the mse file.

Is this a known bug/feature or do I need to update something?
