[news.eclipse.tools.uml2] Re: Action Semantics support

["James Bruck" <jbruck@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Antonio.

Opensource UML implements action metaclasses as specified in the spec but
there is no facility to specify Action Semantics language ( kinda like
OCL ).
What you are referring to is not Action Semantics but the existance of
metaclasses.

Cheers,
