Hi guys
here are some notes we wrote when browsing the MooseTask
- It would be good to rename MooseTask should be renamed because it has nothing to do in Moose.t
- MooseTask and MooseOperator should be in the same package: Moose-Core since MooseOperator has nothing to do with Smalltalk.
- the hierarchy of MooseCompositeImporterTask is really dealing only with Smalltalk importing logic.
so we should rename it:
SmalltalkCompositeExtractorTask or at least SmalltalkCompositeImporterTaskcolle
- MooseImportClassesTask should be renamed SmalltalkImportClassesTask or SmalltalkExtractClassesTask
since it only create entity extracted from Smalltalk.
( Importer vs extractor
I would like to keep the term importer to the action of populating a model and the action to extract model from source code.
In java, c3 we have extractor and in Moose importers and extractors)
- I would rename SmalltalkImporter as SmalltalkExtractor like that we have a clear line.
- Nobody is referencing PackageDescription?
- Now our problem is that we would like to run tasks when a
a Smalltalk model is extracted and imported and when a mse file is imported.
We should probably introduce the logic of the plugin login somewhere in a superclass and (MSEImporter should be a subclass of MooseTask - not verified if make sense)
- I have no clue about the contents of the Moose-GenericImporter. It looks like we stopped in the middle of something (which is probably true).
- MooseImportingTask is still Smalltalk specific so I would move to the Moose-SmalltalkImporter.
- MooseFileStructureImporter looks really broken but it can be a nice example of a subclass of MooseImporterTask (not MooseExtractorTask)
Doru it would be fun to do some pair programming to address these changes. Do you have time this evening?
