It was decided a long time ago that RPackage should not have a nested structure. Doru On Thu, Apr 5, 2012 at 11:31 AM, Alain Plantec <alain.plantec@yahoo.com> wrote:

Hi all, Since a RPackage can have sub-packages (see RPackage>>systemSubPackages) I'm wondering how to get the parent package of a package.

btw: why are subPackages computed ? I mean it seems to me that a package can be considered as a composite, so why not directly associate a package with its children ? (and maybe have a two ways association between a child and a parent package).

----- RPackage>>systemSubPackages

   "return all RPackages matching with systemCategories of this RPackage"    |tmpPackages|    tmpPackages := OrderedCollection new.    self systemCategories do: [:aString |        (aString asSymbol = self name) ifFalse: [            |tmpPackage|            "Maybe a RPackage matching the subcategory name does not yet exist in the organizer (Because packageInfo lazily register category from system). In this case, We should also lazily register a new RPackage with the right contents inside:"            tmpPackage := RPackageOrganizer default packageNamed: aString asSymbol ifAbsent: [RPackageOrganizer default importFromPackageInfo: (PackageInfo named: aString)].            tmpPackages add: (tmpPackage).            ].        ].    ^ tmpPackages -----
