I want to reimplement software engineering metrics using moose chef instead of moose cook.
for example to compute cohesion I would do (among other things): self queryAllOutgoingDependencies atClassScope withinMyPackage
i.e. : 1- from a package (self) 2- get all its "outgoingdependencies" (outgoing does not mean going outside the package, this includes dependencies within th package) 3- put that at class level (because we are interested in dependencies between classes within or outside the package) 4- and filter those that are inside self
I want the result to be all dependencies from classes within package self going to classes within package self .
but (from the moose chef documentation):
"The scope operators exclude self loops by default (this was also the default in Moose Cook). That is, the query result will not contain the receiver scope itself: you will not get something like PackageX -> PackageX in the result (the reason for this is that in general algorithms do not like graphs with self loops)."
So: - should we change that default? - should I change my query?
I believe if there is a method to exclude self loops (withoutSelfLoop), it should not be done automatically in some case let those who want it do it themselves.
What say you?

Indeed, this situation could be improved, but I think the solution is different than what you propose.
Currently, the exclusion of self loops happens at two levels:
1. withoutSelfLoops is result specific and it excludes the relationships based on the input. So, something like "aClass queryAllOutgoingDependencies withoutSelfLoops" will return all dependencies that do not end in aClass
2. MooseQueryResult>>collectAtScope: rejects the results based on the scope "aClass queryAllOutgoingDependencies atNamespaceScope" will return all target namespaces involved in a dependency but that are not the namespace of the current class.
If you want to get the namespaces including the current one, you can play with the private method "primCollectAtScope:": "aClass queryOutgoingReferences primCollectAtScope: #namespaceScope"
All in all, the two ways of trimming are at different levels of abstraction.
So, I propose introducing methods like "atNamespaceScopeWithSelfLoops" or "atNamespaceScopeWithoutSelfLoops". It is not so nice, but I do not see a clean other solution.
I would probably prefer to have atNamespaceScope to return all namespaces, including self loops, and introduce "atNamespaceScopeWithoutSelfLoops". What do you say?

OK, I see what you mean. When I refactored Cook into MooseChef, there was lots of small decisions about the "best" default choice i.e., the least surprising choice.

The underlying principle is that default choices in MooseChef works best bottom-up: that is, starting from the low-level entities (methods, classes) up to enclosing entities (classes, packages). Conversely, you have to be careful when working top-down and that's because of the self loops exclusion.
So my proposed solution for this is to work "bottom-up": instead of collecting dependencies directly at package level, you start to work at class level.
aPackage classes collect: [ :class | class queryAllOutgoingDependencies atClassScope withinMyPackage ]

If this is not what you want, you might go to the level of methods, and then again self loops are exclude but at method level (i.e. recursive calls are excluded).
I really don't know what's the best: - keep the current semantic which plays nicely bottom-up (however, the above case shows it's not really consistent with "least surprise" :) ) - or be less intelligent and let the user chooses himself whether or not he wants self loops as proposed by Doru. This way MooseChef would be more adaptable to any case.
I am not very happy with the proposed API enhancements but it can be a temporary solution. I would rather make #withoutSelfLoops works with MooseObjectQueryResult (currently, #withoutSelfLoops works only with primitive queries). Then I could write (for example):

Hi Simon,
Indeed, I also looked into the possibility of having a MooseObjectQueryResult>>withoutSelfLoops. It would be cool to have it like that, but it does not seem possible currently because we do not have enough context.
I only have the receiver, and I do not know what kind of scoping was used. I guess that with scoping information, it would be enough, right?
Any ideas?
Cheers, Doru

The basic scope is the one of the receiver, which you can obtain with #yourScope.

Hi,
I just pushed a change removing the selfloop exclusion in scoping methods. Ignoring the 60+ tests that needed to be updated, most of the work consisted in finding the right definition for FamixMooseOutgoingCompositeQueryResult>>collectAtScope: But this did not involve playing with the 'receiver' instance variable as mentioned in the emails.
All (updated) tests are green
The initial behaviour should be available by calling explicitly 'withoutSelfLoops' on the result of a at___Scope (although I realize I did not test that explicitly).

Hi Nicolas,
Thanks for looking into this.
I have a couple of issues.
1. you did not commit the tests :)
2. I read the code, but I fail to see how you can get the semantics we discussed below by calling withoutSelfLoops. Could you maybe explain and provide an example?
3. I do not understand why you removed primCollectAtScope:. It was a clean way to separate the creation of the new result from the actual query. For example, now you get: MooseQueryResult subclass: #MooseIncomingQueryResult uses: TDependencyQueryResult - {#primCollectAtScope:}
I would prefer to keep the previous separation. In fact, it seems to me that we can obtain the same results as you have now by simply commenting the reject statement from:
MooseQueryResult>>collectAtScope: aScopeSymbol | sourceScope | sourceScope := receiver perform: aScopeSymbol. ^ self newObjectResultWith: ((self primCollectAtScope: aScopeSymbol) "reject: [ :scope | sourceScope mooseIncludes: scope ]") "exclude self loops"
This is a tricky change and we should look into it closely. My solution would be to: - remove the default reject (see above) - add the receiver to MooseObjectQueryResult - implement MooseObjectQueryResult>>withoutSelfLoops to use it
I do not have time right now, but it would be great if you or someone else could spend time on this.
Cheers, Doru

Hi,
I will look into this. But not this week as I am working on a project.

Thanks for looking into this.
I have a couple of issues.
you did not commit the tests :)
I read the code, but I fail to see how you can get the semantics we
discussed below by calling withoutSelfLoops. Could you maybe explain and provide an example?
- I do not understand why you removed primCollectAtScope:. It was a
clean way to separate the creation of the new result from the actual query. For example, now you get: MooseQueryResult subclass: #MooseIncomingQueryResult uses: TDependencyQueryResult - {#primCollectAtScope:}
I would prefer to keep the previous separation. In fact, it seems to me that we can obtain the same results as you have now by simply commenting the reject statement from:
MooseQueryResult>>collectAtScope: aScopeSymbol | sourceScope | sourceScope := receiver perform: aScopeSymbol. ^ self newObjectResultWith: ((self primCollectAtScope: aScopeSymbol) "reject: [ :scope | sourceScope mooseIncludes: scope ]") "exclude self loops"
This is a tricky change and we should look into it closely. My solution would be to:
- remove the default reject (see above)
- add the receiver to MooseObjectQueryResult
- implement MooseObjectQueryResult>>withoutSelfLoops to use it
I do not have time right now, but it would be great if you or someone else could spend time on this.
Cheers, Doru

I only have the receiver, and I do not know what kind of scoping was used. I guess that with scoping information, it would be enough, right?
The basic scope is the one of the receiver, which you can obtain with #yourScope.
Then when sending an #atSomethingScope message, my guess is that the MooseObjectQueryResult should also save the scope so that it is available for example in #withoutSelfLoops
Right, this is was my idea as well :).

OK, I see what you mean. When I refactored Cook into MooseChef, there was lots of small decisions about the "best" default choice i.e., the least surprising choice. Unfortunately I also realized that such choices do not work in all cases. The underlying principle is that default choices in MooseChef works best bottom-up: that is, starting from the low-level entities (methods, classes) up to enclosing entities (classes, packages). Conversely, you have to be careful when working top-down and that's because of the self loops exclusion.
So my proposed solution for this is to work "bottom-up": instead of collecting dependencies directly at package level, you start to work at class level.
aPackage classes collect: [ :class | class queryAllOutgoingDependencies atClassScope withinMyPackage ]
But again, this might or might not be the expected result because you exclude self loops at class scope then (i.e. no ClassA -> ClassA relation, this might or might not be what you want). If this is not what you want, you might go to the level of methods, and then again self loops are exclude but at method level (i.e. recursive calls are excluded).
I really don't know what's the best:
- keep the current semantic which plays nicely bottom-up
(however, the above case shows it's not really consistent with "least surprise" :) )
- or be less intelligent and let the user chooses himself
whether or not he wants self loops as proposed by Doru. This way MooseChef would be more adaptable to any case.
I am not very happy with the proposed API enhancements but it can be a temporary solution. I would rather make #withoutSelfLoops works with MooseObjectQueryResult (currently, #withoutSelfLoops works only with primitive queries). Then I could write (for example):
aPackage queryAllOutgoingDependencies atClassScope withoutSelfLoops

But I might have goofed up, the changes I now see are not those I did. And now my time is up.
So, I will have to look at it again but this time with calm ...

Because it broke the build (61 failures), and because the changes need review and have a deep impact, I now moved the version into the MoosePlayground repository.
Everything is back to green now.

OK
"- remove the default reject (see above)" This is what I did and so MooseQueryResult>>collectAtScope: basically calls primCollectAtScope: and create a MooseObjectQueryResult with the result This is why I removed primCollectAtScope:
So, the problem here seems more like a programming philosophy clash.
I must admit I am not too much found of creating tiny methods that call tiny methods that call tiny methods. Understanding this forces one to navigate a lot in the source code which is not fun.
In the present case I have a short collectAtScope: method that as the same length as the current primCollectAtScope: but does not require the intermediary step.
"- add the receiver to MooseObjectQueryResult"
this one I don't get. AFAIK, receiver is already there and it just works
"- implement MooseObjectQueryResult>>withoutSelfLoops to use it"
OK I did it quickly, but I need to test

mmm, in this case I don't see another clean way to do it. #collectAtScope: is (was) a template method and #primCollectAtScope: a hook overridden in subclasses. (although I don't like the name)
In the present case I have a short collectAtScope: method that as the same length as the current primCollectAtScope: but does not require the intermediary step.
"- add the receiver to MooseObjectQueryResult"
I guess Doru meant to add the scope
this one I don't get. AFAIK, receiver is already there and it just works
"- implement MooseObjectQueryResult>>withoutSelfLoops to use it"
OK I did it quickly, but I need to test
