1.1.5 AbstractNamespace: namespace hierarchy

addSubspace: aSymbol

Create a namespace named aSymbol, add it to the receiver’s subspaces, and answer it.

allSubassociationsDo: aBlock

Invokes aBlock once for every association in each of the receiver’s subspaces.

allSubspaces

Answer the direct and indirect subspaces of the receiver in a Set

allSubspacesDo: aBlock

Invokes aBlock for all subspaces, both direct and indirect.

allSuperspacesDo: aBlock

Evaluate aBlock once for each of the receiver’s superspaces

includesClassNamed: aString

Answer whether the receiver or any of its superspaces include the given class – note that this method (unlike #includesKey:) does not require aString to be interned and (unlike #includesGlobalNamed:) only returns true if the global is a class object.

includesGlobalNamed: aString

Answer whether the receiver or any of its superspaces include the given key – note that this method (unlike #includesKey:) does not require aString to be interned but (unlike #includesClassNamed:) returns true even if the global is not a class object.

removeSubspace: aSymbol

Remove my subspace named aSymbol from the hierarchy.

selectSubspaces: aBlock

Return a Set of subspaces of the receiver satisfying aBlock.

selectSuperspaces: aBlock

Return a Set of superspaces of the receiver satisfying aBlock.

siblings

Answer all the other children of the same namespace as the receiver.

siblingsDo: aBlock

Evaluate aBlock once for each of the other root namespaces, passing the namespace as a parameter.

subspaces

Answer the receiver’s direct subspaces

subspacesDo: aBlock

Invokes aBlock for all direct subspaces.

superspace

Answer the receiver’s superspace.

superspace: aNamespace

Set the superspace of the receiver to be ’aNamespace’. Also adds the receiver as a subspace of it.

withAllSubspaces

Answer a Set containing the receiver together with its direct and indirect subspaces

withAllSubspacesDo: aBlock

Invokes aBlock for the receiver and all subclasses, both direct and indirect.
