Visualisation of multiple types with the same name #230

Closed anthonyanjorin closed 4 years ago

anthonyanjorin commented 4 years ago

In the following example, there are 5 types all named "T", but in different metamodels... In the visualisation it's all shown as T (see /TestSuite/src/org/emoflon/neo/example/typing/TypingTest.msl for the example).

I suggest we prefix the names of classes with the names of their metamodels in such cases. Doing this all the time would be a bad idea as it is only necessary to resolve name clashes.

This doesn't matter so much for TGGs if the variables are in different domains...

Does this only apply to (triple) rules or to models and patterns as well? What I mean is, can this happen in models and/or patterns?

anthonyanjorin commented 4 years ago

Yes, certainly. Such a type name clash can occur in any entity...
