Initializing field in generated class [message #890944]

Hi,
Bases on the domain model example I want to write a little language. I have some problems to figurwe out, how to work with xtend2 to generate my resulting classes.

I found out, that
members += table.toField('abc', table.newTypeRef('int')) [
^static = true
]

gives me
private static int abc;

but I would like to get
private static int abc = 42;

I couldn't figure it out. Also I didn't find how to create a static initializer.

static {
abc = 42;
}

Is there any tutorial for an extended use of this way to generate java classes?
Any help welcome.
Andreas

e.g.

val field = f.toField(f.name, f.type) [
							^static = true
							val Procedure1<ITreeAppendable> b = [
								 append('''123''')
							]
							initializer = b
						]
