In this paper, we show how elaborate support forframework-based software evolution can be provided basedon explicit documentation of the hot spots of object-orientedapplication frameworks. Such support includes high-leveltransformations that guide a developer when instantiatingapplications from a framework by propagating the necessarychanges, as well as application upgrading facilitiesbased on these transformations. The approach relies on activedeclarative documentation of the design and evolutionof the framework's hot spots, by means of metapatterns andtheir associated transformations.
