[eml-dev] objectname in eml when morpho imports a text file

[Jing Tao]

Hi, devs:

When morpho imports a text file into an eml package, currently it stores 
the file name as objectName rather thank the full path. For instance, 
morpho will store "rainfall-2007.txt" as objectName rather than 
"C:\data\rainfall-2007.txt".

I am working on a morpho module, which can reload existed eml to entity 
wizard. So in DataLocation page, I need the information of the full text 
file path. I propose that morpho will store the full path rather than the 
file name as the objectName in eml. In our case, morpho will store 
"C:\data\rainfall-2007.txt" as objectName. I am just wondering if this 
approach violates eml's practice.

Any comments and suggestions will be really appreciated.

Regards,

Jing
