Hi,
as much I know aspect oriented programming is supported by xpand.

I have a GMF project, and when I customize templates, I put them into a folder "templates/aspects/".

The aspects however must follow the same directory structure as the original template, e.g.

the original template:
org.eclipse.gmf.codegen/templates/xpt/editor/Editor.xpt

the aspect:
<my project>/templates/aspects/xpt/editor/Editor.xpt

Therefore, I can only change the Editor.xpt template. So, if my changes concern several templates, I have to create an aspect template for each of those.

What I want to have is an aspect, e.g. color.xpt which contains all template changes within this one file. Example:

color.xpt
<<Around template/xx/yy/ ...>>

<<EndAround>>

<<Around template/zz/aa// ...>>

<<EndAround>>

Is this possible ?

Hi,

maybe you should ask this in the GMF newsgroup since afaik GMF Xpand is
a Fork to M2T Xpand
