ALF — Multiple owners of Clause

  • Summary:

    [Sridhar Iyengar] 15.Page 2-238: Figure 2-41. Looking at the metamodel,
    it looks like the same 'Clause' can be owned by a LoopAction and a
    ConditionalAction. For pragmatic reasons, there should be an OCL
    constraint preventing this from happening - unless the submitters feel
    the same clause can be 'owned' by both types of Actions. (I tried to
    find the constraint and did not see one). I usually see a red flag when
    multiple composite associations point to the same Class. (In this case
    both LoopAction and ConditionalAction have a composite Association to
    Clause. In other parts of the spec where this pattern recurs, I did see
    the OCL constraint! (See Figure 3, Page 15 and related well formedness
    rule on Page 21 that makes sure an 'input pin must be owned by either an
    Action or a Procedure but not both'.
