Hi Michael, Eric, Jim,
thank you very much for discussing the question of the use of superclasses for
separating logic from grammar. Indeed, you have convinced me thoroughly that the
superclass approach is in *most* cases very appropriate - as Jim elaborated,
only small and simple grammars without the perspective of reuse would make the
all-in-one alternative really attractive.
A sidenote to Jim: the archetype does currently not introduce a superclass of
the tree parser... I think the tree parser is not less of a candidate than the
parser - so you might consider adding a superclass for it, too. Second sidenote:
using the archetype, the plugin version 3.3 is proposed, but selecting it
results in an error - this may confuse.
Kind regards,
-- Hans-Juergen
