Hello

Again I need your help.

I have two situations that I repeated several times:

1 - Sometimes, when he made a call to an internal template recursively, in the generated code I have blank lines between lines of code:

	/**
	 * the gtNodiscMotive getter.
	 * @return the gtNodiscMotive.
	 */
	public GtNodiscMotiveDTO getGtNodiscMotive() {
		return this.gtNodiscMotive;
	}
	/**

	 * the gtNodiscMotive setter.

	 * @param p_gtNodiscMotive the gtNodiscMotive to set.

	 */

	public void setGtNodiscMotive(final GtNodiscMotiveDTO p_gtNodiscMotive) {

		this.gtNodiscMotive = p_gtNodiscMotive;

	}

2 - In other times what happens is that if I generate the code more than once, the code moves to the right:

/**
			 * * 
			 * @return BigDecimal
			 */
	public BigDecimal bigDecimalPrueba() {
				LOGGER.debug("bigDecimalPrueba() inicio. ");
				final BigDecimal out;
				// Start of user code for logic of PruebaGenerarHelper1 - bigDecimalPrueba org.eclipse.uml2.uml.internal.impl.DataTypeImpl@cd6c31 (name: BigDecimal, visibility: <unset>) (isLeaf: false, isAbstract: false)
				//TODO implemented method bigDecimalPrueba()
				out = BigDecimal.valueOf(16L);
				//End of user code 
				LOGGER.debug("bigDecimalPrueba() fin. " + out);
				return out;
			}

I think it is for any issue of context of the template but I can not detect it.

you have an idea that I may be going on. Strategy that I can continue to generate properly formatted code?

In advance, thank you for your generous support.

Hi,

In order to help you with this, it would be way easier if I had a the template involved but since I already faced those two problems, here is what I think:

1- blank lines
If you write this :

  ['doSomething']
  [callMyTemplate(myParameter)/]
  ['doSomethingElse']

And if your call to "callMyTemplate(...)" returns en empty string, a blank line will be generated. If you want to prevent this from happening, you can use an "if".

  ['doSomething']
  [if (not iKnowSomeConditionThatWillNotGenerateAnything)]
  [callMyTemplate(myParameter)/]
  [/if]
  ['doSomethingElse']

That way, you will prevent the blank line from being generated.

2- code moving to the right
Is that code inside of a protected area ? Because we have a bug for this: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=331978
If its not in a protected area, I'll have to look at the template involved because I've never seen this.
