Hi,

With the current assembly model, how can we tell if a component reference
is
promoted by a comosite reference? I can get all the promoted references
from
CompositeReference but not the other way.

Thanks,
Raymond

If the model is a true reflection of what appears in the SCDL then I
assume you would have to loop over all the references in the composite that
contains the component in question and test if the componet reference is
being promoted. I know that isn't telling you anything you don't already
know but it's just and excuse to add a related question to this thread

Is the philosophy with the assembly model to have it represent precisely
what appears in the SCDL or is there room to include value add, for example,
links from components references to the composite references that promote
them?

We currently have: CompositeReference.promotedReferences --> 0..n ComponentReference.

We could have the relationship in the other direction: ComponentReference.promotedAs --> 0..n CompositeReference.

In the future, I would prefer to have only one of the two above relationships (to avoid confusion with which one needs to be populated when you read or construct model instances), but maybe we can add the second relationship for now and populate it in CompositeUtil.wire().

Would that help?
