Hi,
I'm currently interested in type inference. RoelTyper works by:
- searching all messages that are sent to instance variables - searching all affections to instance variables
I think this is the kind of things that can be done on file based languages (dynamically typed).
But we are working with a live system with classes and their instances. It may be interesting to look at the instances of a given class and then get the type of the instance variable you want. If there are multiple instances of the class, we have to merge the results.
Is it a good idea ?
