17.5 Templates

   The Templates package specifies how both Classifiers, Packages, and Operations can be parameterized with Classifier, ValueSpecification , and Feature (Property and Operation) template parameters. The package introduces mechanisms for defining templates, template parameters, and bound elements in general, and the specialization of these for classifiers and packages.

   Classifier, package, and operation templates were covered in 1.x in the sense that any model element could be templateable. This new metamodel restricts the templateable elements to those for which it is meaningful to have template parameters.
