[Moose-dev] Displaying custom Magritte view on FAMIX model

Hi,

I would like to build custom magritte view for a FAMIX model, however it seems that Fame/Metanool are somehow interfering with it..

Imagine a simple model (a class with an attribute): ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ cls := FAMIXClass new name: 'Something'.

(attr := FAMIXAttribute new) name: 'myAttribute'; declaredType: (FAMIXClass new name: 'OtherThing').

cls addAttribute: attr. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

now I can open the magritte description ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ attr mooseDescription asMagritteDescription asMagritteMorph openInWindow. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ However this is a meta description, which I don't want...

So second option was to build it manually; I extract descriptions that I am interested in.... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ container := MAContainer new addAll: ({ attr mooseDescription at: 'name'. attr mooseDescription at: 'declaredType'. } collect: #asMagritteDescription).

(container asMorphOn: attr) openInWindow. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

However the problem with this is, that the declaredType is presented as TextField, which is not very useful.

So I'm kind of lost...

basically what I want to do is to have a MAContainer that contains both the Attribute's name and #declaredType's name.

Is this possible?

Thanks, Peter
