[Moose-dev] Re: Lift

Hk Andrea, I had a quick look at Lift. Being able to express the queries on MooseGroups is a nice addon. But I think it would have been much nicer keeping the syntax of MooseChef. Instead of: (aNamespaceGroup lift: #incomingInvocations from:self mooseModel allMethods) asMooseGroup why don't you use: aNamespaceGroup queryIncomingInvocations atNamespaceScope which according to MooseChef syntax should return the same thing ? I trust you will agree the second is more elegant , and it has the advantage of keeping the same syntax, so we don't need to learn a new syntax nicolas On 18/06/12 14:39, Andrea Caracciolo wrote: Hi, I developed a small extension which allows to query a moose model to obtain a set of implicit associations derived from low level relationships. What you can do concretely is for example to select a group of namespace entities, and ask for all implicit associations existing between the selected entities based on a specific relationship existing at a lower abstraction level (i.e.: the method level). The end result is much similar to the one provided by Moose Chef, with the advantage of being much more generic and flexible. Each generated association keeps a reference to the concrete relationships on which it is based on. If you are interested, you can try it out at: http://www.squeaksource.com/Lift.html The wiki page contains some usage examples. cheers, Andrea _____________________________ Andrea Caracciolo -- caracciolo(a)iam.unibe.ch Software Composition Group University of Bern _______________________________________________ Moose-dev mailing list Moose-dev(a)iam.unibe.ch https://www.iam.unibe.ch/mailman/listinfo/moose-dev _______________________________________________ Moose-dev mailing list Moose-dev(a)iam.unibe.ch https://www.iam.unibe.ch/mailman/listinfo/moose-dev
