Hi, Joel,
Please use the MDT OCL newsgroup for OCL question (I have included it in
this reply).
Yes, that is correct. You will need to define custom "global" variables in
your Environment and provide values for them in your EvaluationEnvironment.
A complete example of how to do this can be found in the OCL Developer
Guide. In the Eclipse Help browser, select the
OCL Developer Guide
Programmer's Guide
Advanced Topics
Customizing the Environment
topic.
If that leaves you with unanswered questions, post them here!
HTH,
Christian
