XMI12 — What IS this "General Datatype Mechanism" anyway?

  • Key: XMI12-17
  • Legacy Issue Number: 4819
  • Status: open  
  • Source: Anonymous
  • Summary:

    The XMI 1.2 spec - like its predecessor - extols the virtues of the "General
    Datatype mechanism" [XMI 1.2, pp. 3-30], showing e few examples of how
    useful it is.

    Maybe it's just me missing the point here: but what IS this mechanism, and
    where is it defined?

    I have read the examples given on page 3-30 about 20 times, but I still
    don't understand what is going on.
