<p>A callin binding composes an existing role method with a
given base method.
It may appear within the role class at any place where feature
declarations are allowed. It is denoted by
</p>
<div class="listing plain"><pre><i>role_method_designator</i> <b>&lt;-</b> <i>callin_modifier </i><i>base_method_designator;</i></pre></div>
<p>Just like with callout bindings, method designators may
or may not contain parameters lists and return type but no modifiers;
also, each method designator must exactly and uniquely select one method
(cf. <a href="s3.1.c.html" title="&sect;3.1.(c)&nbsp;Kinds of method designators"
class="sect">&sect;3.1.(c)</a>).
<br />
For <em>callin modifiers</em> see <a href="s4.2.html"
title="&sect;4.2&nbsp;Callin modifiers (before, after, replace)"
class="sect">below (&sect;4.2)</a>.
