extending moose

hi, 

i'm new at this and i'm helping in the develop of an extension for moose-famix with aspects, but for this we need some data so we could make a good store of the correct data in the model. We need to get more ids for our new structures and for the famix structures that we added when we parse a project with aspectJ in eclipse. 

The project name is aspectmaps and you could see in http://www.pleiad.cl/research/software/aspectmaps 

i hope you could help me with this little problem

and sorry for my bad english, i'm still learning

Miguel is doing this as a student of mine, the problem that we are having is that we may need to add new types to the famix model, but we dont know how the procedure for this. In an MSE we see that each enity has a unique ID, so we want to know if/how we can generate this ID from within moose itself.

The procedure is to create subclasses of FAMIXEntity and meta-describe them. Or do you have more specific problems?

The ID is for objects, not for types and they are used basically for reference management. It is the responsibility of the exporter to properly create and manage the ids.

Does it answer your question?

Cheers,

That is adding to the meta-model :-P but yes, we are doing that as well and we have seen that the moose panel is not happy with our subclasses. How do we add the meta-description? Is there some reference text on this?

So, these IDs are only used in the import process and then discarded?

Partially, but it's a good start, thanks :-)

Easy. Look at the class side of existing classes (e.g., FAMIXClass)

Each moose element has an ID. But you should not care about it. Moose manages this for you.
