Hi all,

I was trying to do the following transformation:
@@
identifier M;
expression E;
@@
- struct foo M = E;
+ struct foo M;
+ copy_struct(&M, &E);

but without inserting the function call in the middle of the
declarations and instead pushing it past them.

This is one attempt:
@decl@
identifier M;
expression E;
@@
- struct foo M = E;
+ struct foo M;

@copy@
identifier decl.M;
expression decl.E;
declaration D;
statement S;
@@
struct foo M;
...
D
+ copy_struct(&M, &E);
S

The copy rule fails to match anything when I have != 1
declarations after the struct. So the ... doesn't seem
to eat the extra declarations for some reason.

Also tried some other tricks with <... ...> but that just resulted
in the code being inserted into every if block in the function.
Not what I wanted.

I guess what I might need is something along the lines of:
@copy@
...
declaration list[N] D;
@@
struct foo M;
D
+ copy_struct(&M, &E);
S

but that's not supported it seems.

Is there any way to achieve this atm?
