Hi,

I created a meta model and am experimenting with code generation.

In this, I have a PG_Return meta class that either might occur inside a PG_Calc or a PG_GetCalc object. The generated code depends on the context PG_Return is used in. Therefore, I created a query that checks whether the context of the PG_Return instance is within PG_GetCalc.

[query public inGetCalcContext(s: PG_Statement) : Boolean = 
let container: EObject = s.eContainer() 
in
	if (container <> null) and (container.oclIsTypeOf(PG_GetCalc)) 
	then
		true
	else
	    if (container = null) 
	    then
	    	false
	    else
	    	inGetCalcContext(container)
	    endif
	endif
/]


However, Acceleo complains that it doesn't know EObject? Is it not possible to use ecore concepts like above?

Greetings,
Wilbert

Hi Wilbert,

If you want to use Ecore, you have to declare it in the header of your module:
[module generate('http://www.myawesomemetamodel.com', 'http://www.eclipse.org/emf/2002/Ecore')]

Hi Stephane ,

Again your answer was right to the spot for which I thank you.

However, in the documentation I stumbled across the 'Acceleo non standard operations reference'. The thing I wanted to achieve can also be solved using the 'ancestors' operation. Let's use as much as possible the provided operations.

Thanks,
Wilbert.
