Hi
is it possible to make nested calls to 'iterate' method?
my problem is:
i want to get the type of all paramethers of an method. This is very easy to do by using 'for' loops (consider i an interface):
[for (op : Operation | i.operations)]
[for (at : Parameter | op.parameters)]
[at.type.name/]
[/for]
[/for]
This code is working, but i want to do this using a query. I've tried the code below but it does not return any value:
[query public getParametersPackage(i : Interface) : Sequence(T) =
i.operations->iterate(elem; res: Sequence(String) = Sequence{} |
elem.parameters->iterate(a; b : Sequence(String) = Sequence{} |
res->append(a.type.name)
))/]
what is the problem? is my query wrong?
thanks

Hi Andre,
Nested iterate calls are possible, but IIRC you have to explicitely
append to the "result" variables in each iterate. That would give
something like
i.operations->iterate(elem; res: Sequence(String) = Sequence{} |
res->union(elem.parameters->iterate(a; res2 : Sequence(String) =
Sequence{} |
res2->append(a.type.name))))
But for the sake of your coworkers or those that will follow after you
to maintain your modules, _avoid_ iterates at all costs : they totally
hinder the readeability of your expressions.
There's pretty much always a way to work around iterates. Sebastien's
solution is way more elegant, but even without that, use specific OCL
loops whenever possible. The "collect", "select", "reject", ...
operations are there to answer specific iteration needs. For exemple,
your expression could be rewrote as
"i.operations->collect(parameters->collect(type.name))"
