Cross Referencing with a different attribute of a rule [message #1032430]

Hi all,

In my DSL, I need to cross reference a rule using a different variable than it's name. For example my rule is like:

rule1:
name = ID "and" name2 = ID
;

rule2:
"ref" [rule1|name2]
;

This always gives errors and cannot be compiled.

I also tried adding a rule for name2 like

Name2String return ecore::EString:
ID
;

The error is going away when I change the rule2 to "ref" [rule1|Name2String] but it still uses the default name attribute in rule1 to reference it.

Is there any way to solve this problem in xtext?

Thanks very much!
