Hello,

In listing 6.8 of the epsilon book the moveTo variable is defined inside the guard and then used outside the guard. I tried this in an ETL rule, but the variable defined inside my guard is not recognized elsewhere in the rule. Can you confirm the scope of variables defined in a guard?

I tried a work around by defining the variable in a pre block before the rule, but it didn't work either.

Regards,

On an update on this, if I define the var in the main file pre block (the rule is in a separate file which I import) then it works. Can it be that pre blocks of imported files are bugged?

Hi Horacio,

Looking at the code for ErlModule (a superclass of EtlModule), they should work:

	public NamedRules getPre() {
		if (pre == null) {
			pre = new NamedRules();
			for (EolImport import_ : imports) {
				if (import_.isLoaded() && (import_.getModule() instanceof IErlModule)) {
					IErlModule module = (IErlModule) import_.getModule();
					pre.addAll(module.getPre());
				}
			}
			pre.addAll(declaredPre);
		}
		return pre;
	}

Could you set up a minimal example that reproduces the issue?

Cheers,
Antonio
