Hi,

I have a tricky problem here. I need a COPY of some elements, which are created in an output-pattern, in a matched rule.

The scenario is as following:

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/18688378/eclipseCoding/ATL/copy_of_output_element.JPG

1. I create the body of ClassA in a matched rule

2. Now I filter ClassC with a guard (hasSuperClass), so it doesn't enters the matchedRule where ClassA is mapped. For ClassC I have an other matchedRule, where I can access the genrerated-method of ClassB via thisModule.resoveTem().

3. Now I would like to copy, the allready create method of ClassA to ClassC.

Is this possible or do I use ATL in a wrong way?

You cannot copy output elements in ATL. Better use rule inheritance with an abstract rule to specify the common output pattern for ClassA and ClassC, with specific sub-rules for ClassA and ClassC.

Cheers,
Dennis
