Re: [elk-dev] Meta Data Language

[Ulf Rüegg <uru@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

if I'm correct, every specified property ends up in the same package, e.g. 'org.eclipse.elk'. I was wondering whether we should allow for more freedom. Sometimes it's advantageous to further qualify the property's id. 

An example: 

At the moment there's the 'compaction' property. In the old Properties file the id was 'de.cau.cs.kieler.klay.layered.nodeplace.compactionStrategy', which indicates that this property is related to node placement.

One further question. As you probably remember, layout options have to be resolved manually for klayjs. Do you think we can automatically generate this resolver using the new language?

Sure. Can you give me a pointer to an example?
