Is it right? > This is a complicated topic to discuss via a short e-mail. I agree with your last sentence in terms of a desirable objective. The templates should access the underlying UML model using an API that would make the templates portable (UML 1.4 to UML 2.0 portability). Your use of the phrase 'meta-classes' could be a bit ambigious for some people. Do you mean the objects used by the templates to query the UML model? Or do you mean the set of objects used by the meta-data-repository to represent the UML model? ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: eBay Get office equipment for less on eBay! http://adfarm.mediaplex.com/ad/ck/711-11697-6916-5 _______________________________________________ Andromda-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/andromda-devel
