> Defect Tracker #24181: Request was for specifically for "format" property, but all metadata should be exposed.
> Inside a custom connector, I'd like to grab the value of the "format" property from columns in a model that have that property set. Is this possible? 
> In the code, I'm working with a com.metamatrix.data.metadata.runtime.Element. Element provides methods to fetch the NameInSource property, the minimumValue and maximumValue properties, but does not provide a method to fetch Format. It does provide a method to "getProperties", but this seems to be empty, and might usually contain metadata extensions, according to the javadoc. So, is there a way to get Format?
