A representation of the model object 'Templateable Element'. A templateable element is an element that can optionally be defined as a template and bound to other templates.
The following features are supported:
- Template Binding
- Owned Template Signature

  - getTemplateBindings
```
MDWEList<TemplateBinding> getTemplateBindings()
```
    Returns the value of the 'Template Binding' containment reference list. The list contents are of type TemplateBinding. It is bidirectional and its opposite is 'Bound Element'. The optional bindings from this element to templates.
    
    Returns:
    
    the value of the 'Template Binding' containment reference list.
    
    See Also:
    
    UMLPackage.getTemplateableElement_TemplateBinding(), TemplateBinding.getBoundElement()
  - createTemplateBinding
```
TemplateBinding createTemplateBinding(TemplateSignature signature)
```
    Creates a new TemplateBinding, with the specified 'Signature', and appends it to the ' Template Binding' containment reference list.
    
    Parameters:
    
    signature - The 'Signature' for the new TemplateBinding, or null.
    
    Returns:
    
    The new TemplateBinding.
    
    See Also:
    
    getTemplateBindings()
  - getTemplateBinding
```
TemplateBinding getTemplateBinding(TemplateSignature signature)
```
    Retrieves the first TemplateBinding with the specified 'Signature' from the ' Template Binding' containment reference list.
    
    Parameters:
    
    signature - The 'Signature' of the TemplateBinding to retrieve, or null.
    
    Returns:
    
    The first TemplateBinding with the specified 'Signature', or null.
    
    See Also:
    
    getTemplateBindings()

```
TemplateBinding getTemplateBinding(TemplateSignature signature,
                                   boolean createOnDemand)
```
    Retrieves the first TemplateBinding with the specified 'Signature' from the ' Template Binding' containment reference list.
    
    Parameters:
    
    signature - The 'Signature' of the TemplateBinding to retrieve, or null.
    
    createOnDemand - Whether to create a TemplateBinding on demand if not found.
    
    Returns:
    
    The first TemplateBinding with the specified 'Signature', or null.
    
    See Also:
    
    getTemplateBindings()
  - getOwnedTemplateSignature
```
TemplateSignature getOwnedTemplateSignature()
```
    Returns the value of the 'Owned Template Signature' containment reference. It is bidirectional and its opposite is 'Template'. The optional template signature specifying the formal template parameters.
    
    Returns:
    
    the value of the 'Owned Template Signature' containment reference.
    
    See Also:
    
    setOwnedTemplateSignature(TemplateSignature), UMLPackage.getTemplateableElement_OwnedTemplateSignature(), TemplateSignature.getTemplate()
  - setOwnedTemplateSignature
```
void setOwnedTemplateSignature(TemplateSignature value)
```
    Sets the value of the 'Owned Template Signature' containment reference.
    
    Parameters:
    
    value - the new value of the 'Owned Template Signature' containment reference.
    
    See Also:
    
    getOwnedTemplateSignature()
  - createOwnedTemplateSignature
```
TemplateSignature createOwnedTemplateSignature(EClass eClass)
```
    Creates a new TemplateSignature and sets the 'Owned Template Signature' containment reference.
    
    Parameters:
    
    eClass - The Ecore class of the TemplateSignature to create.
    
    Returns:
    
    The new TemplateSignature.

    Returns:
    
    The new TemplateSignature.
    
    See Also:
    
    getOwnedTemplateSignature()
  - parameterableElements
```
MDWEList<ParameterableElement> parameterableElements()
```
    The query parameterableElements() returns the set of elements that may be used as the parametered elements for a template parameter of this templateable element. By default, this set includes all the owned elements. Subclasses may override this operation if they choose to restrict the set of parameterable elements. result = allOwnedElements->select(oclIsKindOf(ParameterableElement))
  - isTemplate
```
boolean isTemplate()
```
    The query isTemplate() returns whether this templateable element is actually a template. result = ownedTemplateSignature->notEmpty()
