Hi,
I am nearly a Acceleo/MTL beginner,
i have a basic but important question about line feed management in templates,
assuming i have the following template :

[template myTemplate(...)]
[if (cond1)]part1[/if]
[if (cond2)]part2[/if]
[for (cond3)]part3[/for]
[if (cond4)]part4[/if]
...
[if (condN)]partN[/if]
[/template]

It works fine, but now i have the requirements :
- I do not want line feeds in output between parts (part1 part2 ...)
- I do not want to write sub-templates for maintenance reasons (too many templates in the same .mtl)

So the basic solution is to write again on a single line :

[template myTemplate(...)][if (cond1)]part1[/if][if (cond2)]part2[/if][for (cond3)]part3[/for][if (cond4)]part4[/if]...[if (condN)]partN[/if]
[/template]

--> Editing the template becomes difficult (line too long with real cases)

Is there a dedicated way to "escape" the line feeds in the template ?

Thanks.

Hi Fabien,

There is no way to remove line feeds as you need for such a behavior.
The only way to have the results of distinct ifs on the same line is to
remove all line feeds in between as you've shown with your "basic solution".

There is no other way ATM, and I do not think there will be. If with a
template like you have there is no line feeds in-between the resulting
"part*", then how do we do if the need is to _have_ line feeds?
