[Moose-dev] Re: wrong meta model definition

Thanks for reporting this.

Indeed, we have to make the meta-model rules work again. I will see if I can refresh them in the context of the OnMoose report (this is in the Arki project).

Cheers, Doru

Hi Doru, I was looking with Raffael to the definition of the meta model i we might find an inconsistency:

You define:

FAMIXGlobalVariable>>>parentModule <MSEProperty: #parentModule type: #FAMIXModule opposite: #globalVariables> <MSEComment: 'Module (typically a file) defining the global variable.'> ^ self privateState attributeAt: #parentModule ifAbsentPut: [ nil ]

But the opposite globalVariable is not define in FAMIXModule but into FAMIXScopingEntity. So either the pragmas in FAMIXGlobalVariable>>>parentModule became like this: <MSEProperty: #parentModule type: #FAMIXScopingEntity opposite: #globalVariables> <MSEComment: 'Module (typically a file) defining the global variable.'>

(In this case the property should be called parentScope not parentModule)

or you move to FAMIXModule

FAMIXScopingEntity>>>globalVariables <MSEProperty: #globalVariables type: #FAMIXGlobalVariable opposite: #parentScope> <multivalued> <derived> <MSEComment: 'Global variables defined in the scope, if any.'>

I would go for the first.

Thanks,

Fabrizio and Raffael
