Hi,
By searching in Fame, I found the pragma <container>. It is recognized by the
metamodel in FM3PropertyDescription but not used (excepted for Fame itself in
FM3PropertyDescription>>mmClass).
I think we have a usage with Moose query to use it.
However, I don't understand why it is not used for FAMIX.
Cheers,
Vincent

in the 2 points suggested, we have to change the MSE importer and the
metamodel to take into account the new pragmas (in “annotation” or in the
selectors by MSEParentProperty).
Do you
think that is a good idea ?
If, we do that, I think the solution in point 1 is better.
For the current failing test, we can add <derived>. This way the
information will not be serialized
The MSE property is about an instance. So, marking it with <derived> does
not work because we are mixing levels of abstractions.
<I know it is just temporary.
What we want is to make the selector discoverable through reflection. This
is at the level of Pharo code. So, by annotating the concrete property we can
discover them properly and have subclasses know about them.
<So you don't think that is should be described in the meta model? and just
use the Pharo reflexion to retrieve the methods?
I think we only use this in Pharo at runtime, so adding it to the meta-model is
not particularly useful. That is why, let’s keep it simple.
