Interface Environment.Registry

All Known Implementing Classes:

EnvironmentRegistryImpl

Enclosing interface:

Environment<PK,C,O,P,EL,PM,S,COA,SSA,CT,CLS,E>

public static interface Environment.Registry

A registry of environments. The registry may be consulted to find a default environment suitable for the introspection of a model element. These environments will never be used for the definition of constraints or variables.

This registry may be populated at run-time or, in an Eclipse environment, statically on the org.eclipse.ocl.environments extension point.
