# The Transformer class can be used to specify model transformations.
#
# Model transformations take place between a <i>source model</i> (located in the <i>source
# environment</i> being an instance of the <i>source metamodel</i>) and a <i>target model</i> (located
# in the <i>target environment</i> being an instance of the <i>target metamodel</i>).
# Normally a "model" consists of several model elements associated with each other.
#
# =Transformation Rules
#
# The transformation is specified within a subclass of Transformer.
# Within the subclass, the Transformer.transform class method can be used to specify transformation
# blocks for specific metamodel classes of the source metamodel.
#
# If there is no transformation rule for the current object's class, a rule for the superclass
# is used instead. If there's no rule for the superclass, the class hierarchy is searched
# this way until Object.
#
# Here is an example:
#
# class MyTransformer < RGen::Transformer
#
# transform InputClass, :to => OutputClass do
# { :name => name, :otherClass => trans(otherClass) }
# end
#
# transform OtherInputClass, :to => OtherOutputClass do
# { :name => name }
# end
# end
#
# In this example a transformation rule is specified for model elements of class InputClass
# as well as for elements of class OtherInputClass. The former is to be transformed into
# an instance of OutputClass, the latter into an instance of OtherOutputClass.
# Note that the Ruby class objects are used to specifiy the classes.
#
# =Transforming Attributes
#
# Besides the target class of a transformation, the attributes of the result object are
# specified in the above example. This is done by providing a Ruby block with the call of
# +transform+. Within this block arbitrary Ruby code may be placed, however the block
# must return a hash. This hash object specifies the attribute assignment of the
# result object using key/value pairs: The key must be a Symbol specifying the attribute
# which is to be assigned by name, the value is the value that will be assigned.
#
# For convenience, the transformation block will be evaluated in the context of the
# source model element which is currently being converted. This way it is possible to just
# write <code>:name => name</code> in the example in order to assign the name of the source
# object to the name attribute of the target object.
#
# =Transforming References
#
# When attributes of elements are references to other elements, those referenced
# elements have to be transformed as well. As shown above, this can be done by calling
# the Transformer#trans method. This method initiates a transformation of the element
# or array of elements passed as parameter according to transformation rules specified
# using +transform+. In fact the +trans+ method is the only way to start the transformation
# at all.
#
# For convenience and performance reasons, the result of +trans+ is cached with respect
# to the parameter object. I.e. calling trans on the same source object a second time will
# return the same result object _without_ a second evaluation of the corresponding
# transformation rules.
#
# This way the +trans+ method can be used to lookup the target element for some source
# element without the need to locally store a reference to the target element. In addition
# this can be useful if it is not clear if certain element has already been transformed
# when it is required within some other transformation block. See example below.
#
# Special care has been taken to allow the transformation of elements which reference
# each other cyclically. The key issue here is that the target element of some transformation
# is created _before_ the transformation's block is evaluated, i.e before the elements
# attributes are set. Otherwise a call to +trans+ within the transformation's block
# could lead to a +trans+ of the element itself.
#
# Here is an example:
#
# transform ModelAIn, :to => ModelAOut do
# { :name => name, :modelB => trans(modelB) }
# end
#
# transform ModelBIn, :to => ModelBOut do
# { :name => name, :modelA => trans(modelA) }
# end
#
# Note that in this case it does not matter if the transformation is initiated by calling
# +trans+ with a ModelAIn element or ModelBIn element due to the caching feature described
# above.
#
# =Transformer Methods
#
# When code in transformer blocks becomes more complex it might be useful to refactor
# it into smaller methods. If regular Ruby methods within the Transformer subclass are
# used for this purpose, it is necessary to know the source element being transformed.
# This could be achieved by explicitly passing the +@current_object+ as parameter of the
# method (see Transformer#trans).
#
# A more convenient way however is to define a special kind of method using the
# Transformer.method class method. Those methods are evaluated within the context of the
# current source element being transformed just the same as transformer blocks are.
#
# Here is an example:
#
# transform ModelIn, :to => ModelOut do
# { :number => doubleNumber }
# end
#
# method :doubleNumber do
# number * 2;
# end
#
# In this example the transformation assigns the 'number' attribute of the source element
# multiplied by 2 to the target element. The multiplication is done in a dedicated method
# called 'doubleNumber'. Note that the 'number' attribute of the source element is
# accessed without an explicit reference to the source element as the method's body
# evaluates in the source element's context.
#
# =Conditional Transformations
#
# Using the transformations as described above, all elements of the same class are
# transformed the same way. Conditional transformations allow to transform elements of
# the same class into elements of different target classes as well as applying different
# transformations on the attributes.
#
# Conditional transformations are defined by specifying multiple transformer blocks for
# the same source class and providing a condition with each block. Since it is important
# to create the target object before evaluation of the transformation block (see above),
# the conditions must also be evaluated separately _before_ the transformer block.
#
# Conditions are specified using transformer methods as described above. If the return
# value is true, the corresponding block is used for transformation. If more than one
# conditions are true, only the first transformer block will be evaluated.
#
# If there is no rule with a condition evaluating to true, rules for superclasses will
# be checked as described above.
#
# Here is an example:
#
# transform ModelIn, :to => ModelOut, :if => :largeNumber do
# { :number => number * 2}
# end
#
# transform ModelIn, :to => ModelOut, :if => :smallNumber do
# { :number => number / 2 }
# end
#
# method :largeNumber do
# number > 1000
# end
#
# method :smallNumber do
# number < 500
# end
#
# In this case the transformation of an element of class ModelIn depends on the value
# of the element's 'number' attribute. If the value is greater than 1000, the first rule
# as taken and the number is doubled. If the value is smaller than 500, the second rule
# is taken and the number is divided by two.
#
# Note that it is up to the user to avoid cycles within the conditions. A cycle could
# occure if the condition are based on transformation target elements, i.e. if +trans+
# is used within the condition to lookup or transform other elements.
#
# = Copy Transformations
#
# In some cases, transformations should just copy a model, either in the same metamodel
# or in another metamodel with the same package/class structure. Sometimes, a transformation
# is not exactly a copy, but a copy with slight modifications. Also in this case most
# classes need to be copied verbatim.
#
# The class method Transformer.copy can be used to specify a copy rule for a single
# metamodel class. If no target class is specified using the :to named parameter, the
# target class will be the same as the source class (i.e. in the same metamodel).
#
# copy MM1::ClassA # copy within the same metamodel
# copy MM1::ClassA, :to => MM2::ClassA
#
# The class method Transfomer.copy_all can be used to specify copy rules for all classes
# of a particular metamodel package. Again with :to, the target metamodel package may
# be specified which must have the same package/class structure. If :to is omitted, the
# target metamodel is the same as the source metamodel. In case that for some classes
# specific transformation rules should be used instead of copy rules, exceptions may be
# specified using the :except named parameter. +copy_all+ also provides an easy way to
# copy (clone) a model within the same metamodel.
#
# copy_all MM1 # copy rules for the whole metamodel MM1,
# # used to clone models of MM1
#
# copy_all MM1, :to => MM2, :except => %w( # copy rules for all classes of MM1 to
# ClassA # equally named classes in MM2, except
# Sub1::ClassB # "ClassA" and "Sub1::ClassB"
# )
#
# If a specific class transformation is not an exact copy, the Transformer.transform method
# should be used to actually specify the transformation. If this transformation is also
# mostly a copy, the helper method Transformer#copy_features can be used to create the
# transformation Hash required by the transform method. Any changes to this hash may be done
# in a hash returned by a block given to +copy_features+. This hash will extend or overwrite
# the default copy hash. In case a particular feature should not be part of the copy hash
# (e.g. because it does not exist in the target metamodel), exceptions can be specified using
# the :except named parameter. Here is an example:
#
# transform ClassA, :to => ClassAx do
# copy_features :except => [:featA] do
# { :featB => featA }
# end
# end
#
# In this example, ClassAx is a copy of ClassA except, that feature "featA" in ClassA is renamed
# into "featB" in ClassAx. Using +copy_features+ all features are copied except "featA". Then
# "featB" of the target class is assigned the value of "featA" of the source class.
