I am creating a C# extractor for Moose. I am using Fame for java to access
Famix objects and populate their information (similar to VerveineJ). While
creating Famix.Class objects for C# classes, I need to set parent namespace
to represent the namespace that the class belongs to.
However, the Famix.Class only provides a single method to set the parent and
that take a Famix.Package as a parameter. So, the following expression is an
error for a Famix.Class object.
class.setParentPackage(Namespace)
Since, C# uses namespaces instead of Packages to organize classes, it would
be good to set a Famix.Namespace to be the parent of a class. Does
meta-model not provide a way that we can set Famix.Namespace as a parent of
a class. I can see another method in the Famix.Class and that is
SetContainer(ContainerEntity se). Can I use this method to set a Namespace
to be the parent of a Class and keeping the parentPackage relationship
empty?
thanks.
