Handling Epsilon keywords as metamodel element names [message #1284458]

Hi,

I am writing an ETL transformation based on the OO.ecore metamodel provided in package org.eclipse.epsilon.examples.metamodels.

In OO.ecore, the metatype Class has a property named "extends". To access this property in ETL, one would wite something like:

myClass.extends

However, "extends" is also a keyword of ETL. The above snippet thus generates a compiler error. Is there a way to handle this situation, or is it necessary to modify the metamodel by removing all ETL keywords?

Thanks,
Vlad
