Routine Calls

 

Since a Smallworld image is a large development environment, it is not feasible to automatically extract available methods and procedures. There are simply too many, and the vast majority will be unrelated to the desired functionality.

Further more, method and procedure declarations in Magik do not specify the types of the arguments and returns (Magik is a weak-typed language), so even given a method and procedure, its parameters cannot be automatically mapped.

As a result, the DTS Smallworld Connector expects that any method or procedure it should be aware of will be pre-registered.
