OCL text hyperlinks (Professional Edition only)

The OCL editor provides a feature for hyperlinking custom OCL definitions code.

The feature includes the following:

• a custom OCL define is detected in an other define/query/test (the detection can be started by moving the cursor on the corresponding OCL expression and doing Ctrl-Leftclick on it)
• after Ctrl-Leftclick the cursor jumps to the declaration of the OCL define (if the corresponding OCLLib is not open, it will be automatically opened), and the define is highlighted
• if the define is declared in a OCL JAR, the corresponding OCLLib will be opened read-only in the OCL Editor.

The picture above shows an OCL hyperlink of a custom define.

The file oclumltest.umltest.oclx contains the OCL define. It will be opened and getAllClasses() will be highlighted.

By left-clicking on the 'left-arrow' in the menu bar (framed with a red rectangle), the cursor will jump back to the original position. Alt-Left will also do the job.
