About notations of swarm:
When I read swarm codes from swarm application examples coming with swarm
package, I found some notations are really confusing me. Maybe somebody can
give a
good explanation why we should not change them to better notations. Here I just
give one example:
In /swarmapp/tutorial/simpleObserverBug/observerSwarm.m:
a worldRaster object is created in the following codes:
worldRaster =[ZoomRaster create: [self getZone]];
....
....
[worldRaster pack];
and then a foodDisplay object is created in the following codes:
foodDisplay = [Value2Display createBegin: [self getZone]];
....
....
foodDisplay = [foodDisplay createEnd];
Why worldRaster's creation is beginning with "CREATE", and foodDisplay is
with "CREATEBEGIN"? I would prefer the two notations can be unified, say
using "CREATEBEGIN"? and also I would expect the worldRaster's creation
ends with
[worldRaster createEnd], just foodDisplay's creation does. To do this,
library providers have to stick to predetermined notations, but I can not
see there is any difficult to do that.
