16.5 MetaDescription Object

DescriptionAll meta-modelling items - properties, meta-classes etc. - have descriptions attached.

These can be specified in two ways:

  • as a description property (description="...")
  • as one or more nested description elements - '<description>...</description>'.
The getDescription() method on items returns:

  • the description property, if one has been specified, or if not...
  • the aggregated text of all the embedded <description> nested elements if at least one has been specified, or if not...
  • null.
