Hi

why not use tcl, with this you can create your own counter with any 
incrimination you like - even negative

do something like this

in the header of your mapping file place this

Tcl2 set i 1 ; set increment 2                                               
        \
        proc myCouter {} { return [ incr i $increment ] }

and then in the pipeline place this

@SupplyAttributes(myCountAttr, @Tcl2( myCounter ))

by using an array to hold the current state of the counter, we could even 
expand this counter to include domains the way the @Count() do

the only thing that are missing is that we will not get the final count into 
the logfile, but even that is possible using a little extra coding

simple and flexible, have fun
