Here it is a simple example to show what I want. The real use case is that in Moose, entities are really connected to their model, and if one of our classes contains an entity it would produce a really really really big ston file since it would export millions of entities. But there is a way to retrieve an entity of this model from its moose name. Thus, I would like to export only the moose name of the entities, then get the corresponding entity from a Model the user would have load before during the ston reading. > > -- Cyril Ferlicot https://ferlicot.fr http://www.synectique.eu 2 rue Jacques Prévert 01, 59650 Villeneuve d'ascq France
