MDG Technology Language Options

If you have loaded an MDG Technology that specifies a code module into your Sparx Systems > EA > MDG Technologies folder, the language is included in the 'Source Code Engineering' list on the 'Preferences' dialog. The language is only listed on the 'Preferences' dialog if an MDG Technology file actually uses it in your model.
