Hello, i'm a beginner in EMF, and i'm doing an exercise with xtend.

I'm modeling a game, attached you will find the model.

We have the grammar rules (xtext). e.g.

Game:
b=Board d=Die fields+=Field* players+=Player* pieces+=Piece*
;

Board:
'board' name=ID '{'
'field' ':' field+=[Field] (',' field+=[Field])* ';'
'die' ':' die=[Die]';'
'player' ':' player+=[Player] (',' player+=[Player])+ ';'
'}'
;
Field :
Runway | Home | Yard
;
Runway:
'runway' name=ID '{'
'number' ':' number=INT ';'
'next' ':' next=[Field] ';'
'isOccupied' ':' isOccupied=[Piece] ';'
'nextHome' ':' (nextHome=[Home] | 'null') ';'
'}'
| Entry

Entry:
'entry' name=ID '{'
'color' ':' c=COLOR ';'
'number' ':' number=INT ';'
'next' ':' next=[Field]? ';'
'isOccupied' ':' isOccupied=[Piece]? ';'
'}'
;

etc...

I need to validate the model using Xtend.

How can i validate that my board has exactly 4 entries?

I alredy have this code, only for validate the name (must be uppercase), but i don't know how to work with the entities, since they are part of a field.

@Check
def void checkBoard(Board myboard){

if (!Character.isUpperCase(myboard.name.charAt(0))) {
warning("Name should start with a capital",
DomainmodelPackage.Literals.BOARD__NAME);
}
}

Should i validate it in the same method (checkBoard)? or in a new one?

I hope someone can help me!!!

Thank you

Andrea,

You'll want to ask on the eclipse.modeling.tmf forum to ask about Xtend.
