Generics in generator template Follow

Created March 31, 2020 09:16

Hello,

in the generator I want to create an interface root template, which uses generics in method headers. The generated Java code of the method should look something like this:

<C extends SomeJavaClass> void doSomething(C someParameter);

I struggle to get the

<C extends SomeJavaClass>

part into the template. Is there a way to do this? Or should I try to use a different approach?

Thanks in advance.

Ok... usually you would be able to accomplish this. But sometimes, it is hard to use the editors accordingly:

Open the sample Project crossModelGeneration
Go to the root mapping rule in the generator of Entities language: http://127.0.0.1:63320/node?ref=r%3A5cdac49d-a88c-42da-8dac-b7393c298671%28main%40generator%29%2F4053600266038198027&project=crossModelGeneration
Add a new root mapping rule for Entity
Use an interface to create the template
In the freshly created root mapping add a method declaration to the interface.
On the method name ALT+Enter choose: add Type Variable
Type in C, "space", "extends", the class name you want.
