Hello,
I seem to have a problem with making unique copies of a contained object.
As a small example, I want to transform from Source to Dest:@namespace(uri="http://example.com/source", prefix="SourcePrefix")
package Source;
class XPairs {
val XNames[*] names;
}
class XNames {
attr String[+] ks;
val XValue[1] v;
}
class XValue {
attr String[1] value;
}
The Dest language is similar, except that YName has a single string k, (and again a contained YValue object).@namespace(uri="http://example.com/dest", prefix="DestPrefix")
package Dest;
class YPairs {
val YName[*] names;
}
class YName {
attr String[1] k;
val YValue[1] v;
}
class YValue {
attr String[1] value;
}
In the transformation, I need to make an YName for each string in ks in XNames.
Each XValue should be transformed once, followed by cloning copies for the other names, so each YValue is contained by exactly one YName.
I have tried two ways to achieve this, and failed both times.
The simplest approach is (with the deepclone() code commented out):
modeltype Source uses "http://example.com/source";
modeltype Dest uses "http://example.com/dest";
transformation contain(in s:Source, out d:Dest);
main() {
s.rootObjects()[XPairs] -> xmap mapPairs();
}
mapping XPairs::mapPairs() : YPairs
{
names := self.names -> xmap mapNames() -> flatten();
}
mapping XNames::mapNames() : Sequence(YName)
{
init {
result := self.ks -> xmap mapSingle(self.v);
}
}
mapping String::mapSingle(xv : XValue) : YName
{
k := self;
v := xv.xmap mapValue(); //.deepclone().oclAsType(YValue);
}
mapping XValue::mapValue() : YValue
{
value := self.value;
}
As test-case, I use<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<SourcePrefix:XPairs xmi:version="2.0" xmlns:xmi="http://www.omg.org/XMI" xmlns:SourcePrefix="http://example.com/source">
<names>
<ks>a</ks>
<ks>b</ks>
<ks>c</ks>
<v value="the_value"/>
</names>
</SourcePrefix:XPairs>
In the generated Dest file, I don't get 3 YValue objects, there is only one value:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<DestPrefix:YPairs xmi:version="2.0" xmlns:xmi="http://www.omg.org/XMI" xmlns:DestPrefix="http://example.com/dest">
<names k="a"/>
<names k="b"/>
<names k="c">
<v value="the_value"/>
</names>
</DestPrefix:YPairs>
The second approach I tried is obtained by uncommenting the deepclone() code part in mapSingle(), such that it reads "v := xv.xmap mapValue().deepclone().oclAsType(YValue);". In that case I get:<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xmi:XMI xmi:version="2.0" xmlns:xmi="http://www.omg.org/XMI" xmlns:DestPrefix="http://example.com/dest">
<DestPrefix:YPairs>
<names k="a">
<v value="the_value"/>
</names>
<names k="b">
<v value="the_value"/>
</names>
<names k="c">
<v value="the_value"/>
</names>
</DestPrefix:YPairs>
<DestPrefix:YValue value="the_value"/>
</xmi:XMI>
So my question is, how to do this correctly in QVTo ?
