Hi all



TCI declares TciModuleIdType which according to standard contains module name as defined in ATS.

Just an extraction: “A value of TciModuleIdType is the name of a TTCN‑3 module as specified in the TTCN‑3 ATS. This abstract type is used for module handling.”

This type is used in the following operations:

- getDefiningModule

- tciRootModule

- getImportedModules (actually returns list of TciModuleIdType objects)

- tciGetModuleParameters



Then TCI defines mapping for this type and maps it into QualifedName. I wonder if it’s correct since module is a top level language element which may not be nested. Mapping it to String datatype looks more reasonable. If we look at the C mapping of tciRootModule operation we may see that it maps TciModuleIdType to String.




void tciRootModule

(in TciModuleIdType moduleId)

void tciRootModule(String moduleId)



So what is the correct mapping?

If mapping to QualifedName is the right one then how should QualifedName structure be filled with module name? Put module name into “moduleName” field and leave “objectName” field empty (or NULL) or vice versa?



Best regards,

Hi Pavel,



I understand that QualifiedName is intended to address any element (module, testcase, … ) defined in the ATS. In case of a module, we are setting both objectName and moduleName values to the name of module (as defined in the ATS).



For example, a module defined in the ATS as “module myModule{…}” will be addressed by a QualifiedName which stores the following path: “myModule::myModule”.
