is ther anyway to autoimport classes (in external jar) while using Stringconcatenation [message #1777020]

In the ModelInferrer , I need to build the body of my class using a loop method (evaluate outside of the construct .toclass).
I use a Stringconcatenation for that purpose :

val StringConcatenation vvv = new StringConcatenation
vvv.append('''«IScope» x = new IScope(null);''')

body ='''«vvv»'''
IScope is a class in an uploaded jar
If I mention the «IScope» class directly in the body it is correctly added in the generated java file with corresponding import,
but with the stringconcatenation it is displayed like this:
>>>class partrap.util.IScope
without the import statement
any help please,

why

val StringConcatenation vvv = new StringConcatenation
vvv.append('''«IScope» x = new IScope(null);''')

if you want to do this use StringConcatenationClient.
and dont create StringConcatenation with new

=> either

body = '''«IScope» .....'''

or

body = '''«something»'''

with

def StringConcatenationClient something()
'''«IScope» ....'''
