Mathematica: Webel ADT pseudo classes: Webel ADT-Methods support Wolfram Language Options[] as TagSetDelayed UpValues (but there are some pros and cons). Webel ADT-Methods work with the Webel HelpO` class/method registry, including rich help on options.

Webel IT Australia promotes the amazing Mathematica tool and the powerful Wolfram Language and offers professional Mathematica services for computational computing and data analysis. Our Mathematica tips, issue tracking, and wishlist is offered here most constructively to help improve the tool and language and support the Mathematica user community.

Whilst Wolfram Language Options[] with an OptionsPattern can be used on a TagSetDelayed "method" of a Webel ADT, there is at least one minor complication, namely, the Options are not then method specific, so care has to be taken that the same ADT-Method name is not used more than once in an application and for more than one Webel ADT pseudo class.

The Webel libraries offer rich documentation support for Options[] of an ADT-Method through the HelpO` class/method registry.
