GenNode_test Class Reference

Description

Test:

Verify properties of a special collection type shaped for external representation of object-like data.

• GenNode elements can be created "right away", picking up the given type, assumed that the payload is one of the supported basic types.
• optionally, GenNode elements can be named
• unnamed elements get a marker ID plus unique number extension
• object-like elements can be represented by using a diff:Record<GenNode> as payload. Obviously, the resulting data structure type is recursive.
• a shortcut is provided to simplify defining empty baseline objects
• a special notation is provided to create "id references", which can be used to stand-in for an "object" (Record). This shortcut notation is relevant for the tree diff language – used within Lumiera as "External Tree Description" of object networks.

Test:

simplified notation for access to nested record properties.

This is a somewhat questionable shorthand, insofar it allows to "probe" the contents of a GenNode to some limited extent. Generally speaking, we'd prefer if the code using GenNode operates based on precise structural knowledge, instead of peeking into the data.
