while refactoring, I thought it might be a good idea
only to use Query objects. But in this special case,
most often you'd just want to pass in a simple query
with a literal query string. So this convenience shortcut
indeed makes sense.
...to extract the syntetic ordering from
DefsRegistry and make that a responsibility
of the (internal) syntactic representation
of the query.
doesn't pass the compiler yet
effectively this joins the two existing lines
of "Query" classes into one systematic representation
Next step would be to move all mutation operations
over to the Query::Builder
time handling is part of the library, while this
convenience shortcut relies on the Advice system,
which resides in the application lib.
To allow this kind of symbolic acces to a grid
entity defined "elesewhere", client code needs
to be linked against liblumieracore.so
especially this allows to use the Advice system
or the query resolvers from within library facilities
to refer to other implementation level services by name
the rules-based configuration and query system
will be located within the core application,
while the concrete implementation facilities
are expected to reside within the session or
maybe also the GUI.
This is kind of a 'rochade' refactoring to resolve
circular library dependencies and confine the parts
dependant on the session and MObjects to the Proc-Layer
And while we're in the middle of chainsaw surgery,
we'll concentrate further query-based facilities
alongside the config-rules within the App core.
This template was a leftover from the early days
of Lumiera development and doesn't provide any
substantial value as an abstraction.
For the more intricate cases, we're using the
lib::MultiFact template, which allows to install
several "fabrication" functions at runtime
the solution is to introduce a superinterface
and let Dispatcher augment that with the specific parts.
This way, the Job planning only has to rely on the
rather generic stuff (TimeAnchor, FrameCoord)
NOTE: this commit makes the whole JobPlanning machinery
compilable for the first time!
..the Idea is to rely on some kind of service,
to break the cyclic dependency with the Dispatcher.
But I seem unable to find a natural location or
concept to house that service.
basically we had two lines of doubly nested capsules, due to
using the IterAdaptor template. Actually, the evaluation stack
within JobTicket can be considered an implementation detail and
thus doesn't require an iterator interface; the intention is to
use this through JobPlanning solely.
Thus this reworking removes the special iterator within JobTicket,
but retains the idea of exposing the "current" JobTicket through
a smart pointer or operator->()
work done during the FrOSCon travel
especially the exploration stack is pushed down
first successful definition of all the JobPlanning classes
just the framework of classes necessary to pass the compiler;
all implementation is still stubbed
