Hi All, Here Code issue regarding the Code generator is not so critical I believe. Current Control Manager Code generation mechanism is not so sophisticated that developer can easily extend the other resource model with referencing to generated code. If the code generator make strange code cannot be done by manually, then it is critical but this case is far away from this.
Regarding merging into the master, there are some criterias I need to think about. Aligning to the IoTivity resource architecture is most important consideration factor I think. I'll evaluate how to align the IoTivity concept and how to maintain the code then decide to merge into master.

Option #3 is a sore, sticking point that our competition will gladly publicise. I had to be exhaustive in the options, but you're right, it's a non-starter. And just to be clear, there's a fourth option, which is not to have the code at all. So another option we need to explore is what the relevance of the code is and what gets impacted if it's not there. I think we need to answer these questions: a) is the generated code readable at all? b) is it possible to maintain the generated code by hand? How much effort? c) what platforms does the generator currently run on? d) how difficult would it be to reimplement the generator in (say) Python? e) does the code need to be generated at all? Like Erich said, we may be better off redoing it by hand, f) what happens to the feature if the generated code isn't present? g) what happens if we don't include the feature? Could it be moved to a separate project, outside of IoTivity? -- Thiago Macieira - thiago.macieira (AT) intel.com Software Architect - Intel Open Source Technology Center _______________________________________________ iotivity-dev mailing list iotivity-dev at lists.iotivity.org https://lists.iotivity.org/mailman/listinfo/iotivity-dev
