Okay, here is a possible migration from slots to links path:

1. Load the latest version of both FameUtil and Fame 2. Load Moose 3. Make sure all tests run. 4. Create a tower and populate the metamodel with your classes

t := FMTower new. t metamodel addSmalltalkClasses: { ... }.

5. Run code generation with these settings

gen := FMDefaultCodeGenerator new. gen defaultSuperClass: aSmalltalkClass. gen defaultCategory: aString. gen skipDerivedMethods: true. gen visit: t metamode. gen previewChanges.

6. Apply the changes if okey. 7. Assert that the test bar is still green. 8. Write yourself a script that kills all deprecated (slots, add, remove, etc) methods, should be straight forward. 9. Assert that the test bar is still green.

If you need to further customize the generated code (maybe to preserve custom initialization code, etc) it is best to subclass FMDefaultCodeGenerator and override the appropriate methods as needed. I have tried to take care that the logic is nicely decomposed into different method to facilitate possible customization.

Try Fame-akuhn.98.mcz

If you have errors, I need more information to help. I am working on the new code generation with Links, which is working all fine as far I can tell. However, I do not know enough about the current state of Moose to be able to advise a possible migration path.
