- DMT-132 documentary, Oliver will clarify process and add to documentation of bindings (also need to add to property documentation - use of name "content"
Collection Pattern:
Singletons - A singleton is a bag so we can pick an element; one thing that we were throwing around was the idea of having a shortcut representation of where your domain would be a bag. Our language is such that it is really talking about a single thing to a bag.
- If its easier to do this by pointing to a member than to a singleton bag. Worry about the representation when we get there.
- If you have something that is pointing to an object and you want it to another object
- Proposed collection example: what elements in the range are the target of the relationship
- Larry's hierarchy issue of breaking relationships
- One of the advantages we have here is that we are talking about a pattern, so in talking about specific realizations we need to realize in a way that prescribes its usage which say forces them to use a parent/child or part/whole relationship
- The proof will be when we start looking at realizations
- We need to think about what it means to have a relationship to the relationship to the specific items or to the items in the inner relationships - clarify this in documentation
- The domain of the inner relationship should be the target of the outer relationship
- Hierarchies are created a level at a time (if transitivity applies all the way through you're OK, if not, this could be an issue)
