[Xpand] Advices not applied [message #511369]

Hi,

I call a Xpand generation from Java (without MWE), and I want to apply
an aspect (advice) to this generation, but it doesn't works.
I specify my advice template with Generator.setAdvice() with a string
like that
" fr::inria::adam::calico::models::generation::xpand::fractalT emplate::JavaGeneration "

When I debug the template invocation, my advices are registred in
XpandExecutionContextImpl.registerAdvices() but the problem seem to come
from the findDefinition() method of the same class which test if
corresponding DEFINE template match a AROUND advice. Indeed it compares
the simple name of the AROUND advice with the qualified name of the
DEFINE template which apparently don't matches.

I have already use Xpand aspect "weaving" with GMF Xpand where we must
put advice in a template file with the same path and file name that the
template to "weave", but I can't do that with Xpand because I can't find
the right advices and register them.

What is my mistake(s)?

Thanks.

I use Helios M4,
my main template is this plug-in project :
http://gforge.inria.fr/plugins/scmsvn/viewcvs.php/trunk/v1/p lugins/fr.inria.adam.calico.models.generation.xpand.common.J avaTemplate/models/fr/inria/adam/calico/models/generation/xp and/common/JavaTemplate/?root=calico

and the advice and the generation invocation is in this plug-in project :
http://gforge.inria.fr/plugins/scmsvn/viewcvs.php/trunk/v1/p lugins/fr.inria.adam.calico.models.generation.xpand.fractalT emplate/src/fr/inria/adam/calico/models/generation/xpand/fra ctalTemplate/XpandFractalTemplate.java?rev=490&root=cali co&view=markup

If it can help.

Best Regards.

The M2T Xpand advices work differently than the one from the GFM derivate.

the simple name of an advice is meant to be a pointcut, so you could use
wildcards in order to match any number of definitions.
in your case something like fractalTemplate*JavaGeneration should do it.

Hi Sven,

Thanks it works fine now.

But in one of my AROUND statement a call to a local DEFINE statement
which call a DEFINE statement in the main template doesn't works.
I must copy DEFINE statements that I would like to use in my second
template (where AROUND statements are defined) from the main template to
my second template.

Is it clear?

There is a mean to reuse DEFINE statements from the main template in my
second template?

Regards.

Not yet, sorry.

Are you saying that your not able to call DEFINEs from within an AROUND?

I can call local DEFINE statements to my template where I have defined
my AROUND statements but not the DEFINE statements from the main
template which is called for my code generation.

Code example :

Java code which launch my code generation :

Generator generator = new Generator( );
....

String aspectTemplate = "fr::inria::adam::calico::AspectTemplate";
generator.addAdvice(aspectTemplate);
....
generator.setExpand("fr::inria::adam::calico::common::JavaGeneration::main
FOR GenerationDefinition");
....
generator.invoke(ctx, monitor, issues);

my main template :

«DEFINE main FOR generation::GenerationDefinition»
«EXPAND componentImplementation FOR this»
«ENDDEFINE»
....
«DEFINE plop FOR generation::Plop»
....
«ENDDEFINE»

my aspect template :

«AROUND *componentImplementation FOR generation::GenerationDefinition»
«EXPAND plop FOR this.onePlop»
«ENDAROUND»

this doesn't works because I can't call "plop" DEFINE statement defined
in the main template and consequently I must recopy the "plop" DEFINE
statement in my aspect template.

Hum nothing better than an example.

You'll have to call it by its qualified name.
<<EXPAND my::path::TemplateFile::plop FOR this.onePlop>>
