In C++, things can be organized in namespaces. Namespaces are typically applied to classes.
namespace Geo {
class Point
{
public:
double get_x();
void set_x(double x);
double get_y();
void set_y(double y);
private:
double x;
double y;
};
}
To use the
Point class, one would have to write
Geo::Point in C++. In itemis CREATE, namespaces are reflected as
packages. For each header file you import into your statechart, a package is created, plus an additional package for each namespace.
In the definition section, one would write:
import: "Point.h"
interface:
var PointA: Geo.Point
var PointB: Geo.Point
out event e
Namespaces can be nested, so if namespace
Geo would be contained in namespace
Math,
Point would be addressed as
Math.Geo.Point.
