context function
Context functions are specific functions supporting the dynamic model. Context functions are implemented in context classes, which control data access and state transitions for a structure, properties, database objects or databases. Thus, context functions implement a sort of meta-behavior for a complex data type.
Context functions are used for handling structure or property events including system events as well as user-defined events.
Generalisations: property method, class method
