| Re: [henshin-dev] [in] and [out] Syntax for nodes |
Hi, the in/out notation was intended to specify whether a parameter occurs in the lhs, rhs or both. Since a parameter in the RHS used as attribute value determines no outbound parameter, the notations in/out are a bit misleading. As mentioned at our meeting, this case did not came up when I implemented this. The new notation as stated below follows the notation I proposed in our forum. I recommend to keep the current notation for now and provide the new notation in the subsequent release. regards, Stefan Am 26.09.2011 12:10, schrieb Christian Krause: > Hi, > > I'm a bit confused about the [in] and [out] notation for nodes in the > graphical editor.
