<p>The return value of a callout method may be provided by a result mapping:
</p>
<div class="listing plain"><pre>result <b>&lt;-</b> <i>expression</i></pre></div>
<p>The right hand side expression of a result mapping may use the special identifier
<code>result</code> to refer to the value returned by the base method.
<br />
In a method binding with parameter mappings, it is an error to use
<code>result</code> as the name of a regular method argument.
