[ATL] Class reflection [message #533256]

Dear All,
I wonder if there is a way in ATL to find out the references and
atributes an element from a model has in a transformation. Something
similar to what Java has in its reflection API.

All the best,

V. López

You can use the EMF reflective operations in ATL.
Let's say you have :
from s : AA!BB

you can do :
s.eClass() (this will get the EClass of that element) and then use the EMF Ecore APIs. ex : .eAllStructuralFeatures() or .eAllReferences() and so on.

and then, instead of eSet or eGet, you can use refSetValue and refGetValue :

s.refSetValue($nameofthestructuralfeaturetoset,value)
s.refGetValue($nameofthestructuralfeaturetoset)
