Hi,
I have studied the Famix metamodel and I have some questions / remarks:
- There is a reference (I think even a composition) between ScopingEntities and Function.
It thus means that by inheritance, a Module, a Namespace or a Package refer to function.
Does it make sense for Namespace or Package?
Yes. In C++, you can have a function in a namespace.
- Furthermore, there also exist a reference (I think
even a composition) between Module and Function. In Module, how the distinction is done
between the functions collection inherited from ScopingEntitiy and the specific one?
I do not understand.
- There is a reference between ImplicitVariable and
BehaviouralEntity (parentBehaviouralEntity) whose opposite reference is named
localVariables. However, in BehaviouralEntity, the reference named localVariables points
to LocalVariables. And there is no inheritance between ImplicitVariable and LocalVariable.
This seems to be a problem. Please open an issue.
- There is a reference (globalVariables) (I think even
a composition) between ScopingEntities and GlobalVariable with an opposite reference.
There is also a reference between GlobalVariable and Module (parentModule) but without any
opposite reference.
The missing reference is a problem. As for Module, it has a different intent from a
Namespace in that the Module is more of a physical packaging entity more specific to C++.
But, just for reference, Module is not really mature.
Is this later an easy way to determine the module as a
ScopingEntity to which a GlobalVariable belongs to or does it add something from the
reference between GlobalVariable and ScopingEntities.
It would be nice if someone can give me explanations.
Anne
PS: Sorry, if the questions have been already asked, I am new on the list.
No problem. Keep the questions coming.
Cheers,
Doru
