EVL - Validation error for attribute "function" [message #1690909]

Hello again, I am really sorry for making yet another question.

I have some elements in my model which hold an attribute called function.

However, it seems like "function" is a reserved word in the EVL validation scheme and I do get validation errors in the EVL file while calling
``self.function.name;``.

Multiple markers at this line
- mismatched input: 'function'
- no viable alternative at input 'function'

I can not change the name of the attribute function as it is very specific to the context of the editor.

Are there any workarounds to get the attributes of an element like elf.getAttribute(i) for retrieving attributes. Is this a bug of the EVL validator?

Best, Nikos
