[translation] Deprecated DiffOperation #15562

zerustech · 2015-08-16T02:30:30Z

Summary:

The DiffOperation class has been deprecated and TargetOperation
should be used instead, because DiffOperation has nothing to do
with 'diff', thus its class name is misleading.

Also added detailed documents for all operation interface and classes.

Background:

The following names should have consistent meanings for all operations:

The name of intersection is temporarily introduced here to explain this issue.

intersection = source ∩ target = {x: x ∈ source ∧ x ∈ target}
all = result of the operation, depends on the operation.
new = all ∖ source = {x: x ∈ all ∧ x ∉ source}
obsolete = source ∖ all = {x: x ∈ source ∧ x ∉ all}

The following analysis explains why DiffOperation should be deprecated.

Logic of `MergeOperation`:

all = source ∪ target = {x: x ∈ source ∨ x ∈ target}
new = all ∖ source = {x: x ∈ target ∧ ∉ source}
obsolete = source ∖ all = {x: x ∈ source ∧ x ∉ source ∧ x ∉ target} = ∅

This absolutely makes sense.

Logic of `DiffOperation`:

all = intersection ∪ (target ∖ intersection) = target
new = all ∖ source = {x: x ∈ target ∧ x ∉ source}
obsolete = source ∖ all = source ∖ target = {x: x ∈ source ∧ x ∉ target}

The all part is confusing because 'diff' should either mean 'relative complement' or 'symmetric difference' operation:

Relative Complement:

all = source ∖ target = {x: x ∈ source ∧ x ∉ target}

Symmetric Difference:

all = (source ∖ target) ∪ (target ∖ source) = {x: x ∈ source ∧ x ∉ target ∨ x ∈ target ∧ x ∉ source}

Current Logic has Nothing to do with "Diff":

all = intersection ∪ (target ∖ intersection) = target

So the name of DiffOperation is misleading and inappropriate.
Unfortunately, there is no corresponding set operation for this class,
so it's hard to give it an apppriate name.
From my point of view, I believe the most accurate name for this class
should be TargetOperation because its result is same as the target set.

@stof @aitboudad Please check, thanks.

if you create this class and it is new, is it correct to copy the author?

YEs, author indicates who created the code. This way, you know who to ask for if you're really stuck with a bit of code. That's why I propose to remvoe some of the added @author tags (for instance, from the deprecated class), as the current PR doesn't add much to it.

@OskarStark I copied the author tags because I didn't change the code at all, I just copied the original code from the deprecated class.

@wouterj I added myself as an additional author because I added detailed comments for these classes. They were a bit confusing before and it takes time to figure out the correct meanings of the classes as well as their properties.

@zerustech @author is mostly useful for the author of the code, as explained by @wouterj. Adding only comments does not really need to be added as @author (these annotations are not a way to track all contributors to the class. This is what the git history is for)

@stof I've updated the @author tags

aitboudad · 2015-08-25T12:41:17Z

could you update https://github.com/symfony/symfony/blob/2.8/src/Symfony/Bundle/FrameworkBundle/Command/TranslationUpdateCommand.php#L142 too

zerustech · 2015-08-25T12:48:40Z

@aitboudad Shall I create a separate PR for it after this PR is merged or just include the change in this PR?

aitboudad · 2015-08-25T12:50:20Z

just include the change

What about extending the TargetOperationTest class instead and overriding only the createOperation method instead?

@xabbuh @stof Updated

xabbuh · 2015-09-01T06:48:14Z

Looks like you need to bump the required version of the Translation component in the FrameworkBundle.

zerustech · 2015-09-01T07:07:10Z

@xabbuh Updated

aitboudad · 2015-09-02T16:10:50Z

src/Symfony/Bundle/FrameworkBundle/Tests/Command/TranslationUpdateCommandTest.php

I think this should be added in 2.3

Testing the command is indeed a different topic and should go in a separate PR in 2.3

@aitboudad @stof I've created PR #15673 as per your suggestion. However, if test script is added in a separate PR, how to prove the issue (and avoiding regressions) in this PR? And why should it be added in 2.3?

@zerustech because testing the command makes sense in all versions of Symfony, and so it should be added first in 2.3 (which will then be merged into newer branches)

@stof I agree with you, but why other test scripts like TranslationDebugCommandTest.php was not added in 2.3?

because the TranslationDebugCommand does not exist in 2.3, and so cannot be tested there...

@stof So just to clarify the workflow for adding a new test script:

Find the oldest supported branch that contains the file to be tested.
In this case, the branch is 2.3, but in the future if 2.3 is not supported any more,
the branch might be 2.7 for example.

Add the test script in that branch

Is that correct?

@stof Thanks, I will follow it in the future.

Inheritance should be the other way around. Otherwise, the new TargetOperationTest is a legacy test too.

@xabbuh Fixed

The ``DiffOperation`` class has been deprecated and ``TargetOperation`` should be used instead, because ``DiffOperation`` has nothing to do with 'diff', thus its class name is misleading. Also added detailed documents for all operation interface and classes. The following names should have consistent meanings for all operations: The name of ``intersection`` is temporarily introduced here to explain this issue. * [x] ``intersection`` = source ∩ target = {x: x ∈ source ∧ x ∈ target} * [x] ``all`` = **result of the operation, depends on the operation.** * [x] ``new`` = all ∖ source = {x: x ∈ all ∧ x ∉ source} * [x] ``obsolete`` = source ∖ all = {x: x ∈ source ∧ x ∉ all} The following analysis explains why ``DiffOperation`` should be deprecated. * [x] ``all`` = source ∪ target = {x: x ∈ source ∨ x ∈ target} * [x] ``new`` = all ∖ source = {x: x ∈ target ∧ ∉ source} * [x] ``obsolete`` = source ∖ all = {x: x ∈ source ∧ x ∉ source ∧ x ∉ target} = ∅ This absolutely makes sense. * [ ] ``all`` = intersection ∪ (target ∖ intersection) = target * [x] ``new`` = all ∖ source = {x: x ∈ target ∧ x ∉ source} * [x] ``obsolete`` = source ∖ all = source ∖ target = {x: x ∈ source ∧ x ∉ target} The ``all`` part is confusing because 'diff' should either mean 'relative complement' or 'symmetric difference' operation: * ``all`` = source ∖ target = {x: x ∈ source ∧ x ∉ target} * ``all`` = (source ∖ target) ∪ (target ∖ source) = {x: x ∈ source ∧ x ∉ target ∨ x ∈ target ∧ x ∉ source} * ``all`` = intersection ∪ (target ∖ intersection) = target So the name of ``DiffOperation`` is misleading and inappropriate.
