Subject: [OASIS Issue Tracker] (ODATA-1065) Generalize Edm.AnyPath to be a path to any model element
[ https://issues.oasis-open.org/browse/ODATA-1065?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=65979#comment-65979 ] Ralf Handl commented on ODATA-1065: ----------------------------------- In addition to the abstract type we also need an expression to actually reference something other than a property, navigation property, or annotation: <Annotation Term="Adhoc.MyFavoriteModelElement" <ModelElementPath>/my.schema/someAction</ModelElementPath> </Annotation> <Annotation Term="Adhoc.MyFavoriteModelElement" ModelElementPath="/my.schema/someAction</ModelElementPath" /> "AnyPath" would look a bit odd in the above examples: how about renaming the abstract type to "ModelElementPath"? > Generalize Edm.AnyPath to be a path to any model element > -------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: ODATA-1065 > URL: https://issues.oasis-open.org/browse/ODATA-1065 > Project: OASIS Open Data Protocol (OData) TC > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: CSDL JSON , CSDL XML > Affects Versions: V4.01_CSD01 > Environment: Proposed > Reporter: Ralf Handl > Fix For: V4.01_CSD02 > > > With ODATA-516 we introduced the abstract type Edm.AnyPath as an abstraction of Edm.AnnotationPath, Edm.PropertyPath, and Edm.NavigationPropertyPath. > We now face situations where we want to reference other types of model elements, e.g. bound actions or functions. > It seems wise to use the rather generic name "AnyPath" really for any path to any type of model element, which would > a) postpone the need for actually adding specific types Edm.ActionPath, Edm.FunctionPath, Edm.EntityTypePath, ... > b) allow us to later add these more specific types for the more common cases -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2.2#6258)
