CodeGen: Extra Var created for Abstract Property

[eAndy]

Code generating in C#

Create an abstract readonly property.

When I code gen it still creates the private variable

private float _NPV;  // this shouldn't be created!!
public abstract float NPV
{

get;
}

I tried modifying the code template as shown in the red below but it doesn't work. What am I missing?

%if attStereotype == "property" and opAbstract != "T"%
\n{\npop\t//read property\n\tget{;}\n\t//write property\n\tset{;}\n}
%endTemplate%

{cause} You are possibly creating it from a defined attribute?  
{solution} Create it from a class operation stereotyped as property.

{contraindications}
e.g. if you say the class has an atribute "marshmallows" and create a property from that attribute then it doesn't matter whether you define thw subsequent property as abstract, isQuery, const or any other damn UML qualifier, that affects the property not the attribute.

e.g.(other) create an attribute "pumpkins", then create a property "Fish" from it, then create a property "FlyingSaucers" from it. Change the properties as you will.  Note the attribute still exists.

e.g.(final) create an attribute "billycart", make it a property called "Esmerelda", then make the property derived.  What is it supposed to do? Delete the attribute?

Code: [Select]


coerce(C#.property <> EA.property) = true;
coerce(EA.property <> UML.property) = true;
if !( UML.property == Reality.property) {
   System.Console.Writeln("Damned if I know")
  }
else {
  System.Console.Writeln("Damned if I know!")
}



keep tryin'

p.s. Whhat happened to my spell cjecker??

Ah, yes.

I was creating an attribute and then marking it as a property.

I went back and
1. created an operation
2. set the stereotype to "property"
3. marked it as abstract
4. gen'd code
5. Viola! exactly what I expected, duh!

Thanks much
