This was discussed during Colin's recent visit to Boulder. I've written
up the main requirement as
http://issues.fluidproject.org/browse/FLUID-5045 - which I was reminded
of during today's UIO strategy conversation today with Justin, Yura,
Cindy and Anastasia - in order to improve the ModelRelay system as
Anastasia has written up as
http://issues.fluidproject.org/browse/FLUID-5024, we first need to
supply a system whereby we can freely mix model transformations
documents with general IoC material. This is currently not possible as a
result of the ambiguity in meaning of "expander" which has an unrelated
implementation in the two systems.
The proposal is to rename the use of "expander" in all model
transformation documents to "transform" as both being more intelligible
and descriptive as well as not colliding with our use of "expander". The
exact keyword used will be configurable as an option to the
ModelTransformations system, enabling us to support old documents if we
require (in particular until the next GPII release cycle).
Please supply any questions, comments or other proposals -
Cheers,
Antranig
