Hey,

just started yesterday my first steps with Acceleo. I've some general
questions concerning the beautification of the generated code.

1. Is there a common rule for indentation? When i write my templates
with normal indentation, like this

[file (testContext.name.concat('.ttcn3'), false)]
module [testContext.name/]{
[for (dPool : DataPool | testContext.allDataPool)]
[for (dp:DataPartition|dPool.ownedPartition)]
[genTypes(dp)/]
[/for]
[/for]
}
[/file]

the outcoming is very ugly aligned, since the whole [genTypes/] part is
too much indented.

2. How to use the seperator(',') construct correctly in a for-loop.
Currentlty, the , will be inserted in the next line, not after the
generated line

boolean confirmationExpected
, integer data optional

The loop looks like

[for (p:Property | c.oclAsType(Classifier).attribute) separator(',')]
[if (p.type.oclIsTypeOf(PrimitiveType))][iterateBasicType(p)/]
[else]
Complex
[/if]
[/for]

3. Is it possible to pass a Set as a template parameter?

4. I've tried to pass a parameter like c.oclAsKindOf(Class), where c is
a Classifier, but Acceleo told me, that such an template doesn't exist.
Well, the template is there.

[template public class2type(c:Class)]

Is it possible to downcast an object during the invocation of a template?

Thanks a lot

/Timothy
