I have in a class 5 instances, these instances are:

<Participant id='30' name='Consultant'>
<Participant id='31' name='Credit clerk'>
<Participant id='30' name='Consultant'>
<Participant id='32' name='Head of credit department'>
<Participant id='30' name='Consultant'>

So, I have 3 times < Participant id='30' name ='Consultant'>, but I just want it once. How can I do that?

I tried with an iteration, but as I always just have one value after the the iterator says he cannot iterate on non-collection.

Rule looks like:

rule Role2Lane {
	from
		d : EPK!Participant 
	to
	
		b:BPMN!Lane
		
	(	
		--id <- e.flatParticpant(e.name),
		id <- d.name -> iterate(e; res : Set(EPK!Participant) = Set {} |
				if (res->collect(f | f.name)->includes(e.name)) then
					res
				else
					res->including(e)
				endif
				)-- here we keep only one element of each name value
				->collect(e | thisModule.Definition(e))
	)
}
				
				
lazy rule Definition {
	from
		s : EPK!Participant
	to
		t : BPMN!Lane(
			name <- s.name
		)
}

Thanks for the help. Cheers Roger

unique lazy rule ...

so it will create only once the Participant 30

Still the same problem, he do not iterate over a non-collection. When I debug, "d.name" is just like [Consultant]...maybe so he cannot iterate as he just have one element? Could it be that I need allInstances()? But allInstances do not work... Any clue?

Thanks and cheers Roger

Operations on collections return a copy of the initial collection
(+modifications done on it) so you must reaffect the result to the
collection:
res <- res->including(...)

Ok, I undersand what you mean, but where do I have to put this code?

res <- res -> including(...)

Nope that is wrong except for imperative code.

Ok, what do I have to do then? I am lost...
Are there other possibilities to reach this goal? Thank you very much for your helps...you are so kind...
I will thank you in my thesis, you can believe me. Smile

This is a bit complex and the condition has to be in the filter. You have to transform only one of each Participant.

You should get all the participants, collect the ids in a set, and then re-get the first participant for each id.

Once you have those "first" participants in a collection, the condition becomes collection->includes(d)

Ok, you mean something like this???

EPK!Participant.allInstances() -> iterate(d; res: Set(EPK!Participant) = Set {} | res -> collect(e | e.id) -> first()) -> includes(d)

More like :

EPK!Participant.allInstances()->collect(e | e.id)->asSet()->collect(e | EPK!Participant.allInstances()->select(f | f.id = e)->first())->includes(d)

In order to not recalculate many times the same collection (EPK!Participant.allInstances()->collect(e | e.id)->asSet()->collect(e | EPK!Participant.allInstances()->select(f | f.id = e)->first())), the best would be to put it in a helper def and then use thisModule.collection->includes(d) as filter.

My rule now looks like:

rule Role2Lane {
	from
		d : EPK!Participant 
	to
		a : BPMN!LaneSet
		(
		name <- 'ABC Bank',
		id <- '1',
		lane <- lan
		),
		lan : BPMN!LaneE (	
		 id <- thisModule.collection->includes(d) 
		)
}

My helper:

helper def: collection() : Collection(String) = 
EPK!Participant.allInstances()->collect(e | e.id)->asSet()->collect(e | EPK!Participant.allInstances()->select(f | f.id = e)->first());

I got a strange error message:

org.eclipse.m2m.atl.engine.emfvm.VMException: java.lang.String cannot be cast to org.eclipse.emf.ecore.InternalEObject

Do you understand that? I do not understand it...

A filter is a filter on a rule :

rule Role2Lane {
	from
		d : EPK!Participant (thisModule.collection->includes(d))
	to
		a : BPMN!LaneSet
		(
		name <- 'ABC Bank',
		id <- '1'
		)
}
