[Moose-dev] Re: Management of #queryAll{Direction}Associations (complete one)

Hi, I could not find any queryAllOutgoing (on a moose5 image, I " lost"  my computer last week, and did not recover it fully yet, so no recent moose image). Did you mean queryAllOutgoingDependencies ?

If so: - queryStaticOutgoingAssociations, returns all association that can be statically resolved in Pharo, i.e. Accesses, references, and inheritances - queryAllOutgoingInvocations is quite obvious. Note that in pharo they cannot be resolved statically (hence the candidates field of the invocations) - queryAllOutgoingAssociations, is a combination of all associations: the "static"  ones + invocations

- finally, queryAllOutgoingDependencies, gathers all dependencies, even those not modeled as associations: for exemple, the declaredType of the variables and the functions So each one of these return a different thing For the un-efficient implementation to query all the in/out associations, it seems like a good idea to improve it. However, I would advocate against introducing new traits in Moose. Traits tie us very much to Pharo. This is a problem if we plan to move moose models to gemstone for example...
