Hello!
Is there any operation in OCL which returns if a string contains spaces?

Thanks.

Hi, Angel,

Nope. But, you can do this:

Sequence{1..s.size()}->exists(i | s.substring(i, i) = ' ')

to determine whether a string s contains spaces.

You can even use OCL to define this as an additional operation in your
environment:

context String
def: hasSpace : boolean =
Sequence{1..self.size()}->exists(i | self.substring(i, i) = ' ')

HTH,

Christian

Hi friends,

leveraging the post I would like to know if have way to know if a string has a substring.

For example to know if string: 'return 123+996*oldVar' has substring 'return'

If you can help me, I thank you.
I already tried formulate the expression but I had no success.

Thank you for the help and I'm sorry about the english.

Pablo.

Hi

The OCL string library has been gradually improving.

The Juno release of Eclipse OCL has further String functions such as
regex. See the Help documentation.
