Minutes


(reviewing API Metadata chapter)





handlerFunction


Jon: Lori's changes look fine to me





mix element


Lori: Does 'toProperty' need a note about the attribute being ignored if no
'fromProperty'?


Jon: Yes





mixin element


Lori: What's difference between mix and mixin?


Jon: They are a pair. mixin defines something that can be used. mix
references a mixin. mixin is parallel to class.


Lori: If you class will be mixed, does class have to be inside of a mixin?
Why have mixin as different than class.


Jon: Can mix a class without putting it as a child of a mixin. Difference
between class and mixin is semantic. A mixin is meant to be mixed and
should not be constructed.


Lori/Jon: Need more words to make sure this is clear.





mix element (again)


Jon: What about red-colored comment at bottom? I filled out some defaults
and added a sentence at bottom about how you must have one of fromProperty
or fromScope. I put red-colored note so people could review these
additions.


Lori: But fromScope has a default


Jon: Good point


RESOLUTION: Drop "Additional information" section with sentence about
requiring fromProperty or fromScope.


Lori: I'll make the changes





Factory methods


Lori: Bertrand, do you have a real-world example for the simple case?


Bertrand: I'll have to get back to you on that





singleton


RESOLUTION: Remove words 'global' and 'static' from first sentence.
Unnecessary and might be inaccurate in some scenarios.


RESOLUTION: Shorten 'name' attribute description for full stop after "for
the singleton".





parameter


RESOLUTION: Shorten 'name' attribute description for full stop after "of
this parameter".





Properties chapter


Lori: I started on it. Only minor editorial things so far.


Jon: Let's close the call and resume with Properties next week.
