The micropattern feature adds a lightweight extension capability to the Pattern Driven Programming concept by offering the powerful concept of a micro-generator facility.
When a pattern has been associated with a piece of source code, a virtually infinite number of micropatterns can be inserted into the source code to further extend the pattern generation capability.
To create a user micropattern, you must first create an Eclipse plug-in that includes the micropattern extension point. You can then write the micropattern contents in the Eclipse workbench, in the Java™ class initialized upon the plug-in creation.
