| [edt-dev] IR content: Dataitem reference not stored |
Hi, While parsing an ir file, I noticed that the dataitem type is not stored. Therefore it’s not possible to get that info. Let me clarify with a small example. Take this EGL Source: package sample; dataItem sampleItem string end record someRecd type BasicRecord itemName sampleItem; end From this EGLSource file 2 IR’s are generated: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?> <DataItem ID="1" eClass="org.eclipse.edt.mof.egl.DataItem" name="sampleItem" hasCompileErrors="false" packageName="sample" baseType="egl:egl.lang.anystring" /> <?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?> <Record ID="1" eClass="org.eclipse.edt.mof.egl.Record" name="someRecd" hasCompileErrors="false" packageName="sample" isAbstract="false" > <annotations ID="2" eClass="egl:egl.core.basicrecord" /> <annotations ID="3" eClass="dynMof:org.eclipse.edt.mof.egl.Annotation:EGL_Location" len="i:62" off="i:51" line="i:8" /> <superTypes href=""> <fields ID="4" eClass="org.eclipse.edt.mof.egl.Field" name="itemName" type="egl:egl.lang.anystring" isNullable="false" isStatic="false" isAbstract="false" hasSetValuesBlock="false" isImplicit="false" isSystemField="false" > <annotations ID="5" eClass="dynMof:org.eclipse.edt.mof.egl.Annotation:EGL_Location" len="i:20" off="i:87" line="i:10" /> <container IDREF="1"/> </fields> </Record> As you can see in the IR version of someRecd, no reference to dataitem “sampleItem” is stored for the field named “itemName”. I believe it would be a good enhancement to keep track of this reference. I’d highly appreciate any comment. Regards, Bart. Bart Van Campenhout Consultant
