Re: A new tool, the Constellation Query Language

CQL for your caller preferences model follows. It lacks subtype exclusion between the CommunicationPath subtypes, by the way. The uniqueness constraints at the end of the file would have been embedded in a reading in the fact type definition, if a reading in the correct role order was provided. This...

Re: A new tool, the Constellation Query Language

Hi Clifford, I forgot to mention this earlier, but .orm (nORMa tool files), uploaded to the Library section here, ought to make good test fodder for your converter (as in the model fragment I uploaded about caller preferences: http://www.ormfoundation.org/files/folders/norma/entry1191.aspx ) Posting...

Re: A new tool, the Constellation Query Language

Hi Clifford, I'm just now taking a first look at your "Introduction to CQL" draft version pdf file. My first impression is that it has a familiar ring to ORM trained ears. The reasons why that is are obvious (at least to me, as you've talked about the ORM theory basis to your work)...

Re: A new tool, the Constellation Query Language

I'm working on an "Introduction to CQL" document that will become the CQL language definition. The draft is attached for your comments please.

Re: Question on ValueTypes and TotalInternalUniquenessConstraints

Hi Clifford, If you have reworked the model, it would be interesting to see how you incorporated the changes. (I still think this line deserves it's own thread). The text in your original post: is that generated from CQL, or something you typed in as notation? When I suggested creating a "Contract"...

Re: Question on ValueTypes and TotalInternalUniquenessConstraints

[quote user="Terry Halpin"]I would replace all of Clifford's other value types with entity types[/quote] I agree. I left this model this way because it serves as a useful test case in the CQL converter. [quote user="Terry Halpin"]I would use an entity type with the currency unit...

Re: Questions about combining Rings and Subtypes in nORMa

The attachment shows how I model the Manager-Employee relationship. I couldn't add it by editing my previous response. The CQL for this is as follows (note the unverbalised external mandatory-exclusion constraint): vocabulary EmployeeManagerCEO; /* * Value Types */ PersonName is defined as VariableLengthText...
