Section: 6.3.10.1 (EAIPrimitiveOperator)Description:
Under Constraints in Section 6.3.10.1 it states that "When used in an EAIMessageFlow, an EAIPrimitiveOperator also 'defines' a type." Since this is listed as a constraint, and since the "defines" association is shown as <<derived>> in Figure 6-18, one would assume that the constraint is intended to give the derivation of the association. But it certainly does not state that clearly, nor do I see any way, in the underlying FCM, for an EAIPrimitiveOperator (as an FCMFunction) to define an FCMType in the context of an EAIMessageFlow (as an FCMComposition).Recommendation:
Either make the association not derived (in which case the constraint statement needs to be expanded into a statement of the semantics of what it means for a primitive operator to "define a type") or make the derivation constraint much more explicit (i.e., provide the OCL). -
