Re: [netmod] removing a node from a grouping

[Kent Watsen <[e-mail]>]

Hi Rob,

Right you are, "refine" doesn't have a "when" substatement, but "augment" does.

    grouping "bar-etc" {
      uses "foo-bar-etc" {
        augment "foo" {
          when "false()";
        }
      }
    }


The problem with splitting up groupings is that 1) it needs to be done 
beforehand and 2) it may produce "unnatural" groupings that wouldn't be
there otherwise.

Hi Kent,

I'm not sure that sec 7.13.2 of 7950 allows refine to add a when 
statement, although an equivalent solution would be refine it with an 
if-feature statement for a feature that is never enabled.

Ideally, I think that the groupings would be split up, so that they 
build on each other.

   grouping "foo" {
     container-or-leaf "foo" { ... }
   }

   grouping "bar-etc" {
     container-or-leaf "bar" { ... }
     ...  // the "etc" ;)
   }

   grouping "foo-bar-etc" {
     grouping "foo";
     grouping "bar-etc";
   }

Thanks,
Rob
