transitions: rename ResourceReply class #27

Closed jack-oquin closed 10 years ago

jack-oquin commented 10 years ago

The existing name is confusing, hard to remember and makes little sense.

Schedulers deserve a more memorable name, because this is the main object they use for managing open requests.

The ResourceRequest class plays a similar role for requesters. That name seems OK.

I would like to call it something similar to SchedulerRequest, but that is confusingly close to the scheduler_msgs/SchedulerRequests message. Maybe an abbreviated SchedReq would do, although I generally dislike abbreviations.

Maybe OpenRequest would work, despite the fact that they do spend some time in the CLOSED state.

I am open to better ideas. Suggestions?

ActiveRequest seems like a good name for schedulers to use.
