Description Ed Willink CLA 2011-12-31 10:38:26 EST 
context Operation
def: returnType : Type = Set(type.oclType())

fails to parse. (This is a simplification of the more generic collection type constructor).
Comment 1 Ed Willink CLA 2012-01-01 09:39:07 EST 
Java supports e.g. ArrayList<String> but not ArrayList<"a".getClass()>.

OCL similarly supports Set(String) but not Set('a'.oclType()).

Use of type-valued expressions for type-literals would be a significant language enhancement that needs a very substantial motivation.
