Re: [gobo-eiffel-develop] Export status and cluster dependencies

[CRISMER Paul-G. <Pau...@gr...>]

Hello Colin,

In cluster math/decimal there is a class MA_DECIMAL_HANDLER whose purpose=
 is to allow descendants to have access to MA_DECIMAL internals.

You could make XM_XPATH_DECIMAL_VALUE inherit from  MA_DECIMAL_HANDLER.

{MA_DECIMAL}.coefficient sould be exported to MA_DECIMAL_HANDLER.

It should not introduce a dependency.  As a matter of taste, I do not like=
 reading "unknown" class names in a library, especially if I did not=
 include those classes in my system.

Best regards,

Paul G. Crismer

Subject: [gobo-eiffel-develop] Export status and cluster dependencies

In order to create the XPath string value of an xs:decimal value correctly=
 (no exponential notation, and no NaNs or infinities), I copied and edited=
 the code for {MA_DECIMAL}.to_string_general into XM_XPATH_DECIMAL_VALUE.

In order for it to compile, I had to add XM_XPATH_DECIMAL_VALUE to the list=
 of classes to which {MA_DECIMAL}.coefficient is exported.

I am not sure if doing this adds an unwanted cluster dependency or not (I=
 have a vague memory that ECMA miht have changed the rules in this area).=
 If it does introduce a dependency, then instead coefficient will need=
 exporting to ANY.

I haven't checked this code in.
