Hi Sharon Aicler

I can take up this . Can you provide us more details on this requirement

Thanks & Regards,

Hi Dhevendran,
This is pretty simple.... say today you have a yang def as follows:
container my-container{
list my-list {
}
}

Today the generated method inside MyContainer builder will be:
public void setMyList(List<MyList> lst)

public List<MyList> getMyKList()

public void addMyList(MyList element){
if(this.impl.myList==null)

this.impl.myList.add(element);
}
public void delMyList(MyList element)

So bottom line a developer should not instantiate a list every time and allow the builder to do it.

H Sharon Aicler

Thanks for your input. I will get back to you on this

Hey Sharon,

I think one can add the method signatures to ChildOf node in listToGenType method, and then in the BaseTemplate.xtend define methods to generate adder and remover methods by getting the method signatures through type.getMethodSignatures() in BaseTemplate.

Is this a natural way of achieving it?

Thank you
