Sorry if i'm being obtuse, but what's an 'in' parameter? I just went over the to bookcase and picked up the UML book i have here, Applying UML and Patterns, but can't find anything about an 'in' parameter. Such is life when you're self taught. The puzzle pieces are much more scattered.

That's saying you have two 'in' parameters name 'contact' and 'group', and they are of type 'Contact' and type 'Group' respectively. Here is is in Java syntax: public void myMethod(Contact contact, Group group) I'd highly recommend picking up a UML book. Not necessarily to learn UML for everyday use, but at least to understand the concepts, because they'll come through even in the simplest pencil'n'paper modelling sessions. cheers, barneyb On 7/22/05, Nando <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > This is great.
