This is the TDX language ...
So, you've probably got here by looking at a definition of a sub part of the TDX description.

in short ...

*NAMESPACE <spaceName> - <includedNameSpaces>* declares the namespace this definition is to be included eg. [wiki:NameSpaces see namespaces]

{{{
NAMESPACE $project:tdx - $system:lang // creates or uses a namespace based in the current project called tdx
                                      // and includes the language system based namespace 
}}}

*SINGLETON <singletonName>* declares a singleton (both class and instance definition), below which are listed the attributes that the singleton are constructed from eg. [wiki:SingletonDefinition see singleton]

{{{
SINGLETON system
  int aSolitaryInteger := 3                         // static integer
  ubyte$ aSolitaryString := "system name"           // static string
  classUnderScrutiny{} setOfObjectsUnderScrutiny    // set/list of object instances of classUnderScrutiny
}}}

*CLASS <className>* declares a class (though not any instances), below which are listed the attributes that instances of the class are constructed from eg. [wiki:ClassDefinition see class]

{{{
OBJECT classUnderScrutiny ( ubyte$ nameOfInstance ) // implies a single parameter constructor
  int sizeOfName = nameOfInstance->length           // two fields, one is a part of the constructor
}}}
