Hi Jens,
thanks for the explanation.
Of course I didn't want to say that my getName should be automatically
detected as a getter. I was just asking if there was a way to declare it
manually as const method (getter methods should always be const in c++).
On the other hand, if there are language-specific annotations, it seems
there is an improvement that could be done on c++ code generation.
Cheers,
Gianni
