Java-Type for Concepts Follow

Hello, Mirko.

I didn't understand your question. Could you try to reformulate it?

If you want to extract a reusable part somewhere, the best place for it is the behavior aspect. Just click on the behavior tab of your concept and create a new behavior root. You will be able to define methods there which you can call with dot expression,

Hi Konstantin,

so ok, maybe i try to solve the problem the wrong way ;-)

I have a concept wich will be source for generating a JAVA-Class (1:1). This concept has several Properties. At the moment i'm deriving the name for the class to be generated from the property *name*. I'm using that class-name at several different places in the code that is being generated (f.e. the class-name itself, other classes that reference this class). As the way the name is generated may change in the future i want to have the decision/code "how to generate the name" in one single place. I chose to call some Utility-Class (static call) written in JAVA. At the moment i can't (don't know how to) give the Concept itself as a Parameter to that call, so i give several properties as parameters. But this is not satisfactory to me, because, as i laready mentioned, the way it is calculated may change in the future (maybe dependent to some child-ref or so).

So my idea was to use the ability to call static Java-Methods. As i read your hint with the behavior ... maybe not the best idea ;-).

Can you give me a recommendation how you would solve that demand?

thx,

Mirko

Mirko,

Why you don't want to put such a method to the concept's behavior? I would do so.

Hi Konstantin,

sounds good to me. The static-Util-Solution was more a quick-shot on that problem.

Mirko,

Behavior method creation isn't harder than static method creation.
