I have the following code in my xpand template file:

«IMPORT ejb3»
«IMPORT java»
«DEFINE packageTemplate FOR JavaPackage»
«FOREACH eClassifiers AS c»
«EXPAND entityTemplate FOR c»
«ENDFOREACH»
«ENDDEFINE»
«DEFINE entityTemplate FOR EntityBean»
«FILE name + ".java" »
import java.io.Serializable;
//@Entity
class «name» implements Serializable{
	
	private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
	«FOREACH fields AS f»
	«f.javaVisibility.toString().toLowerCase()» «IF f.eType.name != null»«f.eType.name»«ELSE»String«ENDIF» «f.name»;
	«ENDFOREACH»
	«FOREACH fields AS f»
	public void set«((String)f.name).toFirstUpper()»(«IF f.eType.name != null»«f.eType.name»«ELSE»String«ENDIF» value){
		this.«f.name» = value;
	}
	public «IF f.eType.name != null»«f.eType.name»«ELSE»String«ENDIF» get«((String)f.name).toFirstUpper()»(){
		return this.«f.name»;
	}
	«ENDFOREACH»
}
«ENDFILE»
«ENDDEFINE»

Is it possible to somehow check for the subtype of element f in foreach loop, as I would do in QVT like this:
