Responding to Riemenschneider... ... Say, what? ... I don't think there are any restrictions on operators. For example, suppose the ADT is ComplexNumber. I...
... OK. I can see that, but that would require a mechanism for enabling this within the toolset. Right now, I believe the path in the action language would be...
Responding to Riemenschneider... ... Sure. In MDA terms, one needs a Marking Model, which most tools usually provide as pass-through tags on the model...

Responding to Lee Riemenschneider on the subject of composites: The discussion of composite values on page 67 of the book suggests the following modelling...

Responding to Riemenschneider... ... The transformation engine knows that the 3GL IDE where the generated code will be compiled will take care of the mapping. ...
