We have predefined a set of LaTeX commands that simplify the definition of OCL (Object Constraint Language) expressions in LaTeX documents. By we I mean the SOM research group and, specially, my colleague Robert Clarisó
If you are interested, you can download:
- The LaTeX commands
- An example latex file to show how to use them.
- The generated pdf file to see the final results

Hi Jordi.
Useful macros! Thanks for sharing!
Have you considered using a monospaced font in order to improve the legibility of the OCL formulas?
Yes, I used to be a bit fussy (aka: pijotero o tiquismiquis in Spanish) when talking about typesetting in Tex/LaTeX!

For those who want to try the monospaced font, just replace
\newcommand{\OCLtext}{} with \newcommand{\OCLtext}{\tt} in the OCLDefs file.
We use the monospaced font for the code excerpts in the paper, that’s why we don’t use it when writing OCL.
I know this is a very old post, but since I ran into it via google searching for “latex ocl”, I should mention that the listings CTAN package also supports OCL and also supports syntax highlighting:
