Hi, I am new to XPand. I have managed to create a template which
produces a .xls file compatible with MS -Excel. It basically outputs my
ecore model Classifiers (Worksheet), Attributes (Row header) etc...

Now, I would like to have control in XPand in which order the various
EObject types are outputed. (EReference, EAttribute) which are all
aggregated into the eContents. («EXPAND Content FOREACH eContents»
expands both EReference, EAttribute in whatever order they arrive).

Is there a way to achieve this perhaps Like in OCL, select(v:Type|
expression). I have seen XPand also mixes in OCL syntax. Whould this be
a practical way to achieve what I need?

thanks Christophe

Sorry, found the answer in the docs under 'Expressions':

collection.typeSelect(SomeType)

This can simple be added to my collection:

«EXPAND Content FOREACH eContents.typeSelect(ecore::EReference)»
«EXPAND Content FOREACH eContents.typeSelect(ecore::EAttribute)»

Cheers Christophe
