Customizing association accessors

Introduction

Each class that parameterizes the accessors for an association must contain an operation named "declare", used to generate the declaration of the corresponding C# field. The operations are used to generate accessors in read-only or read-write mode.

For associations, one of them must generate an accessor named "card" returning an integer containing the association's current multiplicity.
