The comment got lost when we merged MooseElement with
MooseEntity (given that MooseEntity was the only subclass).
Well, the MooseElement>>mooseName original implementation was not used anymore, as
mooseName got overridden in MooseEntity (which used to be a subclass of MooseElement).
Furthermore, mooseName is no longer a unique identifier, so the comment was partly
obsolete.
So, now I just kept:
> "The return value must not be nil, and must never change.
> The implementation should be fast, as this key may be used
> extensively by MooseGroup or similar facilities.

> Instead, use mooseNameOn: to customize the result."
where?
Because I added it back in my image.

Hi guys
MooseElement>>mooseName
"Returns an unique identifier of this entity. This method is mandatory, and must
return a Symbol or Integer that uniquely identifies this entity within its model (but
not within the entire Moose enivronment, see MooseElement>>mooseID). The return
value must not be nil, and must never change. The implementation should be fast,
as this key may be used extensivley by the MooseModel or similar facilities."
^self mooseID asString "asSymbol -- check if this really works with Integers
as well, else change sender!"
was like that
and now MooseEntity>>mooseName
mooseName
| stream |
^ self privateState
propertyAt: #mooseName
ifAbsentPut:
[ stream := (String new: 64) writeStream.
self mooseNameOn: stream.
^ stream contents asSymbol ]
so why the comment got lost?
