Utility parents should have children even if the parent itself doesn't have a parent yet

Open fabiocarvalho777 opened this issue 6 years ago • 0 comments

Transformation utility parents should support having children utilities added to it even before being added themselves to a parent.

Suggested solution: if an utility is added to a parent (let's call the parent "foo") before "foo" is added to its own parent (let's call it "bar"), then that utility receives a temporary name. At the time "foo" is added to "bar", then "foo" gets a name, and then, automatically, all "foo's" children gets renamed, based on the brand new name "foo" just got.

This enhancement would not benefit transformation templates and its subclasses, since they never have parents, but it would benefit the other types of TransformationUtilityParent, which are:

  • TransformaitonUtilityLoop
  • TransformationUtilityGroup
  • TransformationUtiltiyList
  • MultipleOperations
