Code generation templates
Overview
To use code generation templates, you must have a valid Objecteering MDA Modeler license.
Generation templates are used to visualize the structure of generated Java source and to easily modify the Java code produced. The template editors provided are detailed in the Objecteering MDA Modeler user guide.
