An Integrated OCL Development Environment (IDE4OCL) can signicantly improve the pragmatics and practice of OCL. Therefore we started a comprehensive requirement analysis with the long term vi- sion of a multisite IDE4OCL project. In this paper we present a feature model for the IDE4OCL vision based on this analysis. In an earlier work we identied domain concepts, tool{level interactions with IDE4OCL, and use cases for OCL developers including a set predened features. In the second step, we asked the OCL community members for their feedback on our proposal. Up to now almost 100 researchers, tool devel- opers and practitioners who gained experience with OCL have voted in an online{survey. The results gave us a valuable insight in the needs of OCL usage both in usual and advanced OCL applications. One of the important results is a collection of features that have been proposed ad- ditionally to our predened features. We analysed all the comments of the participants of the survey and consolidated them into an extended set of IDE4OCL features and eventually into a feature model.
