org.eclipse.uml2.uml
Interface AssociationClass

All Superinterfaces:
Association, BehavioredClassifier, Class, Classifier, Element, org.eclipse.emf.ecore.EModelElement, EncapsulatedClassifier, org.eclipse.emf.ecore.EObject, NamedElement, Namespace, org.eclipse.emf.common.notify.Notifier, PackageableElement, ParameterableElement, RedefinableElement, Relationship, StructuredClassifier, TemplateableElement, Type

public interface AssociationClass
extends Class, Association

A representation of the model object ' Association Class '. A model element that has both association and class properties. An AssociationClass can be seen as an association that also has class properties, or as a class that also has association properties. It not only connects a set of classifiers but also defines a set of features that belong to the relationship itself and not to any of the classifiers.

          The operation allConnections results in the set of all AssociationEnds of the Association.
 boolean validateCannotBeDefined (org.eclipse.emf.common.util.DiagnosticChain diagnostics, java.util.Map<java.lang.Object,java.lang.Object> context)
          An AssociationClass cannot be defined between itself and something else.

Method Detail

validateCannotBeDefined

boolean validateCannotBeDefined(org.eclipse.emf.common.util.DiagnosticChain diagnostics,
                                java.util.Map<java.lang.Object,java.lang.Object> context)
An AssociationClass cannot be defined between itself and something else. self.endType->excludes(self) and self.endType>collect(et|et.allparents()->excludes(self))

Parameters:
diagnostics - The chain of diagnostics to which problems are to be appended.
context - The cache of context-specific information.

allConnections

org.eclipse.emf.common.util.EList<
Property> allConnections()
The operation allConnections results in the set of all AssociationEnds of the Association. result = memberEnd->union ( self.parents ()->collect (p | p.allConnections () )
