I've got a transform from one EMF model to another. I have an EMF enum (say days of the week, Sunday =0, etc.), and in the transform, I need access to the integer value of the enum. How do I access this in the qvto transform?

So I've figured a way around the lack of this feature, but it introduces the possibility of errors during maintenance because the int value is now defined in two locations instead of one

query CALENDAR::Day::intValue() : Integer {
    var value : Integer := 0;

    switch {
        case (self = Day::Sunday) value := 0;
        case (self = Day::Monday) value := 1;
        case (self = Day::Tuesday) value :=2;
        .
        .
        .
    };

    return value;
}

Anyone have a better idea?

I've assumed WeekDay::Sarurday is instance of Ecore::EEnumLiteral, but without success.

modeltype EcoreMM "strict" uses ecore('http://www.eclipse.org/emf/2002/Ecore');
// ...
var eEnumLiteral : EEnumLiteral := myClass.myAttribute.oclAsType(EcoreMM::EEnumLiteral);
log(eEnumLiteral.value.toString());

The output is "<Invalid>" Sad

Ciao

Thank Olli, that's along the lines of what I was looking for, a shame it doesn't work. It looks like what you came up with would be closer to a real solution. Yes, it's an EEnumLiteral.

A partial success:

var eEnum : EEnum := TestMM::WeekDay.oclAsType(EcoreMM::EEnum);
log(eEnum.getEEnumLiteralByLiteral("saturday").value.toString());

WeekDay:Sturday is not instance of EEnumLiteral but WeekDay is instance of EEnumerator.

So only a partial solution, becouse I don't have an idea, to get the literal string of the WeekDay:Sturday.

log(eEnum.getEEnumLiteralByLiteral(self.weekday.repr()).value.toString());

That seems to work. I'm curious what "self.weekday.repr()" returns, the name or the literal? And does it pull that representation out of the model, or out of your translated .properties files?
