I try to understand what you meant
If
FAMIXStructuralEntity is to look up the FMClass in the metatower and look for the
MSEClass: 'StructuralEntity' super: #Whatwever
Then I do not get why it should be #FAMIXStructuralEntity
MSEClass: 'Attribute' super: #FAMIXStructuralEntity
and not
MSEClass: 'Attribute' super: #StructuralEntity
Finally I do not get the need to have FAMIX in front of the second one
because it looks like you hardocde in the anme the package and this is not nice and looks
bad
MSEClass: #Attribute# super: #StructuralEntity package: #FAMIX
would be better to me.
Then I do not see why you have a string and a symbol this makes everything more complex

Why two different lookup for a single position argument because
we jhave in the image
<MSEClass: #Attribute super: 'FAMIX.StructuralEntity'> and
<MSEClass: #Association super: #FAMIXSourcedEntity>
And to me super: is the same kind of lookup not two.
Hi guys
Is there a reason why we get
#Attribute and not FAMIXAttribute
I do not understand. Do you refer to the name of the MetaDescription? If yes, that is
because the qualified name is 'FAMIX.Attribute', given that it belongs to the
FAMIX package. So, there is no need to prefix the class name.
and/or
super: #FAMIXStructuredEntity
instead of
super: 'FAMIX.StructuredEntity'
Ok, this is pretty much crappy :). #FAMIXStructuredEntity will perform a lookup of the
class in the Smalltalk image. 'FAMIX.StructuredEntity' will perform it in the Fame
meta repository. We should only use symbols because they are also affected by
refactorings. I will create a rule :). So I would prefer to have something regular
either
#'FAMIX.Attribute' super: #'FAMIX.StructuredEntity'
or
#Attribute super: #StructuredEntity
In fact I would prefer
#'FAMIXAttribute' super: #'FAMIXStructuredEntity
No. It should be:
MSEClass: 'Attribute' super: #FAMIXStructuralEntity MSEClass: 'Attribute' super:
#FAMIXStructuralEntity
So MSEClass: 'Attribute' super: #FAMIXStructuralEntity does not satisfy me
So tell me and we fix it but once for all.
