[gmf-dev] Bugzilla# 113157: GMF Diagmam Layer API naming issues: ensure

[Cherie Mahoney <cmahoney@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

I'm starting some work on this bugzilla
enhancement for the M3 milestone.  
Bugzilla# 113157: API naming issues:
ensure proper naming of public API

The list of changes being proposed are
below.  The goal is for our public API to be more consistent with
Eclipse/GEF, correct spelling mistakes, be more concise and descriptive,
etc.  Please let me know if you have any suggestions for clarifying
our names.

I will deprecate the current types/methods
and remove them later. 

1. *Connector* --> *Connection* (to be
consistent with GEF)
2. ActionBarEditPolicy --> PopupBarEditPolicy (to avoid confusion with
Eclipse ActionBar terminology)
3. Nesteable* --> Nestable
4. Gate* infrastructure --> "Border" and "Bordered"
5. *Presentation* --> *Diagram*
6. AttachedShapeAction         --> AttachShapeAction
7. ShapeResizableEditPolicy -->        ResizableShapeEditPolicy
8. ShapeLabelResizableEditPolicy --> ResizableShapeLabelEditPolicy
9. ShapeRotatableEditPolicy -->        RotatableShapeEditPolicy
10. *NonResizableEditPolicy --> NonResizable*EditPolicy
11. *ListItemCompartmentEditPart --> *ListItemEditPart (shorter, compartment
just adds confusion)
12. CreateOrSelectElementCommand --> PromptForElementCommand
13. GetConnectorTypeAndEndCommand --> PromptForConnectionAndEndCommand
14. PopupMenuCommand --> PromptCommand

Please add yourself as a CC to this
