LITERAL TEXT IN TRANSFORMATIONS

[wink]

Hello everybody,

I'm currently writing transformations for my unit tests.
Although I find the transformation scripts are not really intuitive (especially due to the lack of documentation and examples) I've managed to do some quite useful stuff.

However I've come to a point where I need to generate a default value for the attributes of the transformationclass that must include double quotes

something like:

Code: [Select]


$Default ="MOCKPP_PCHAR("
$Default+="%className%/%opName%"
$Default+="), this"

Attribute
{
 name=%qt%m_ExpList_%opName%%qt%
 type=%qt%mockpp::ExpectationList<%paramType>%qt%
 default=%qt%$Default%qt%
}



The final default value should be:
MOCKPP_PCHAR("MyClass/MyMethod"), this


No matter what I try, %qt% or " I either get script errors or the generated text does not contain the double quotes.

I'd appreciate your help a lot!

cheers Manfred

default="this is \"quoted\" text"
does the trick.

Sparx: Please update the documentation!

Hi Thomas,

Thank you very much!

I did not even hope that something like that would be possible, considered the rest of the script syntax.  

Great find!

have a nice day,

cheers Manfred
