Subject: NEW ISSUE: Add an optional description attribute to promoted properties, references and services


RAISER:           Mark Combellack

 

TARGET:          SCA Assembly Specification

 

DESCRIPTION:

 

It is currently envisioned that an Application Assembler can take a Composite written by another person and use it in their own applications. Often these “3rd party” Composites will have promoted Properties and References that will need to be set by the Application Assembler. From the SCDL, the Application Assembler has only the name of the promoted Properties and References to document what they do.

 

What is missing is the ability for the Composite Developer to add a short description to promoted Properties and References that would inform the Application Assembler what they are for.

 

It may also be desirable to add a description to promoted Services as well.

 

PROPOSAL:

 

Add an optional “description” attribute to Property, Reference and Service that would allow the Composite Developer to write a brief description of them.
