/ Daniel Veillard <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> was heard to say:

So we'd wind up with something like methodparam:
(modifier*,type?,
((parameter,initializer?)|
funcparams),
modifier*)
Which would allow, for example,
<modifier>const</modifier>
<type>char *</type>
<parameter>string</parameter>
<initializer>"foo"</initializer>
(Not that 'const' and an initializer are likely to be right in the same decl :-)
But still wouldn't handle optionality very well...
I think I favor
<modifier>const</modifier>
<type>char *</type>
<parameter choice="opt">string</parameter>
<initializer>"foo"</initializer>
over a wrapper, but mostly just because <option> and <optional> are both taken.
Be seeing you,
