@spmallette No problem, I could also have seen that by myself. To be
honest, I just looked at the title of that PR and didn't recognize that it was
about simplifying the GLV generation. In general, I really like the changes you
introduced there as writing that much Groovy code inside of a pom.xml wasn't
really nice.
> Gremlin.Net: Generate completely type-safe methods
> --------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: TINKERPOP-1752
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-1752
> Project: TinkerPop
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: dotnet
> Affects Versions: 3.2.5
> Reporter: Florian Hockmann
> Priority: Minor
>
> Currently the generated traversal methods in Gremlin.Net take {{params
> object[] args}} as an argument which allows the user to provide an arbitrary
> number of arguments with any type. While this makes the generation rather
> simple, it doesn't tell the user which arguments are actually valid so users
> can submit completely invalid traversals like:
> {code}
> g.V(1).AddE(1234, "invalidArgument2").Next()
> {code}
> Type-safe methods could also use the original argument names to tell users
> something about what kind of values the methods expect. Consider for example
> the following method signatures for the C# step {{AddE}} that are basically a
> 1:1 representation of the original Java {{addE}} step:
> {code}
> public GraphTraversal< S , Edge > AddE (Direction direction, string
> firstVertexKeyOrEdgeLabel, string edgeLabelOrSecondVertexKey, params object[]
> propertyKeyValues);
> public GraphTraversal< S , Edge > AddE (string edgeLabel);
> {code}
> Implementing this should make TINKERPOP-1725 obsolete and also resolve
> TINKERPOP-1751.
