A representation of the model object '
Generalization
'.
A generalization is a taxonomic relationship between a more general classifier and a more specific classifier. Each instance of the specific classifier is also an indirect instance of the general classifier. Thus, the specific classifier inherits the features of the more general classifier.
A generalization relates a specific classifier to a more general classifier, and is owned by the specific classifier.
The following features are supported:

isSubstitutable
boolean isSubstitutable()
- Returns the value of the '
Is Substitutable
' attribute.
The default value is
"true".
Indicates whether the specific classifier can be used wherever the general classifier can be used. If true, the execution traces of the specific classifier will be a superset of the execution traces of the general classifier.
-
-
-
Returns:
- the value of the 'Is Substitutable' attribute.
-

-
setIsSubstitutable(boolean),
UMLPackage.getGeneralization_IsSubstitutable()
setIsSubstitutable
void setIsSubstitutable(boolean value)
- Sets the value of the '
Is Substitutable' attribute.
-
-
-
Parameters:
-
value - the new value of the 'Is Substitutable' attribute. -

getGeneralizationSets
org.eclipse.emf.common.util.EList<
GeneralizationSet> getGeneralizationSets()
- Returns the value of the '
Generalization Set
' reference list.
The list contents are of type
GeneralizationSet.
It is bidirectional and its opposite is '
Generalization'.
Designates a set in which instances of Generalization is considered members.
-
-
-
Returns:
- the value of the 'Generalization Set' reference list.

Generalization Set
' reference list.
-
-
-
Parameters:
-
name - The '
Name
' of the
GeneralizationSet to retrieve, or null.

Returns:
- The first
GeneralizationSet with the specified '
Name
', or null. -
See Also:
-
getGeneralizationSets()
getGeneralizationSet
GeneralizationSet getGeneralizationSet(java.lang.String name,
boolean ignoreCase)
- Retrieves the first
GeneralizationSet with the specified '
Name
' from the '
Generalization Set
' reference list.

boolean validateGeneralizationSameClassifier(org.eclipse.emf.common.util.DiagnosticChain diagnostics,
java.util.Map<java.lang.Object,java.lang.Object> context)
-
Every Generalization associated with a given GeneralizationSet must have the same general Classifier. That is, all Generalizations for a particular GeneralizationSet must have the same superclass.
true
