Subject: Re: [uoml-x] IDL?
At risk, that I say something stupid, because I just started to learn about IDL. I find the idea of IDL functions calling XML instructions considerable. As far as I understand, that should satisfy BRM comments CZ-03, CZ-06 and JP-09. What I would do is defining interfaces for the UOML graphics objects similar to how SVG does it. Please refer: http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG/shapes.html#DOMInterfaces As well, defining UOML command objects as IDL functions.
