Hi all,
in a transformation, I have a attribute helper defined in the context of
the module. The User Guide tells me, that one can use those attributes
as a kind of global variable and explains that using an integer counter.
Now I'd like to do something like that using a Map.
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
helper def: family2AddressMap : Genealogy!Address = Map(Families!Family, Genealogy!Address);
rule getAddress(f : Families!Family) {
to
a : Genealogy!Address (
street <- f.street,
town <- f.town
)
do {
thisModule.family2AddressMap <- (f, a);
a;
}
}
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
The attribute definition seems to be ok, but the assignment to the map
doesn't work. There are "no viable alternative at input" errors for the
"t" starting "thisModule" as well as for "f" and "a".
So how do I add an entry to a map?
In case you can see that I'm trying to reimplement the behavior of a
unique lazu rule, you are absolutily right. This is just for
educational purposes, and of course totally flawed. ;-)
Bye,
Tassilo

May I suggest 'addressMap' as a name for the Map?

Of course you may.

Oh, that was clearly to obvious to me yesterday afternoon! ;-)
The ATL User Guide states that there are some further operations get(),
including(), union(), getKeys(), getValues() beside the "common
operations". What's "common" here?
Thanks,
Tassilo

Ah, I see. I had the impression that "common" refers to the Java Map
interface linked shortly above that sentence, and so I wondered why
there are getKeys() and getValues() where Map already declares keySet()
and values().
But then, put() should be listed in the user guide.
Bye,
Tassilo
