OCL25 — Unify @pre, ^, ^^, ? as extensibility mechanisms

Open Closed All
  • Key: OCL25-6
  • Legacy Issue Number: 18882
  • Status: open  
  • Source: Model Driven Solutions ( Dr. Edward Willink)
  • Summary:

    The OCL expression syntax is difficult to extend for other purposes. The @pre postcondition operator, and the ,^,? tokens are examples of extension of the core syntax.

    Perhaps @pre could be generalized as an instance of an @token

    {....}

    suffix which could be parsed as an AnnotationExp for tooling to ignore but support extension for.

    Can more arbitrary punctuation such as ,^,?,#,% be generalized?
