By Anthony Richardson
Friday, August 02, 2002

In the first article of this series the Bold model editor was introduced and basic modeling concepts explained. However, there is a lot that can be achieved within the Bold Model editor and the purpose of this article is to explorer the concepts of:

Operations: Add business logic to our classes.
Derived Attributes: Calculating attribute values ‘on the fly’.
Reverse Derived Attributes: Using code to both compose and decompose derived values within your class.
Derived Relationships: Resolving relationships ‘on the fly’
