Marko A. Rodriguez commented on TINKERPOP-1311:
-----------------------------------------------
Ah. And then we should add a new method to {{Traverser}}.
{{Traverser.detach(AttachableFactory)}}. This would give me the dynamics I need
in OLAP at each iteration for each traverser to determine which data the
traverser will be asked off down the line in a traversal.
> AttachableFactory and its entailments.

> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-1311
> Project: TinkerPop
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: structure
> Affects Versions: 3.2.0-incubating
> Reporter: Marko A. Rodriguez
>
> I think that {{ReferenceXXX}}, {{DetachedXXX}}, and {{StarXXX}} should all
> implement both {{Attachable}} and have a respective {{AttachableFactory}}.
> With proper interfaces, providers can create their own {{ProviderXXX}}
> attachables to be used in OLAP and OLTP as they please. For instance, I'm
> already seeing that I can solve the {{path.by("name")}} problem in OLAP by
> using {{DetachedXXX}} where appropriate in a traversal. Or, if its
> {{path.by(outE().count())}}, then {{StarXXX}}. In other words,
> detaching/attaching should be really flexible, dynamic, and we can come up
> with all sorts of sweet attachables that are optimized for every nook and
> cranny case.
