[OpenAjaxIDE] Topics for today

[Jon Ferraiolo]

-------------------------------------
TOPIC #1: API metadata: multiple returns!
-------------------------------------

* Lori: http://openajax.org/pipermail/ide/2008q3/000698.html

--PROPOSAL--:
<parameter name="classname"...>
 <option value="beta.database" paramId="db" />
 <option value="beta.localserver" paramId="local" />
</parameter>
...
<returns paramId="db" datatype="Database"/>
<returns paramId="local" datatype="LocalServer"/>

* Bertrand: http://openajax.org/pipermail/ide/2008q3/000699.html

If we have that *and* the generic factory implementation where one can use
a parameter name as the return type, I’m fine with it.

* Jon: http://openajax.org/pipermail/ide/2008q3/000704.html

--ALTERNATE PROPOSAL--.
<parameter name="classname"...>
 <option value="beta.database" />
 <option value="beta.localserver" />
</parameter>
...
<returns condition="parameter(className)=beta.database"
datatype="Database"/>
<returns  condition="parameter(className)=beta.localserver"
datatype="LocalServer"/>
...for Bertrand's request for using parameter name as the return type...
<parameter name="className" required="true" datatype="String"/>
...
<returns datatype="parameter(className)"/>
