EAI — Missing message content class for timer conditions

  • Key: EAI-86
  • Legacy Issue Number: 4977
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: Model Driven Solutions ( Mr. Ed Seidewitz)
  • Summary:

    Document: UML Profile and Interchange Models for EAI
    Sections: 6.4.1.10.1 (EAITimeSetOperator)

    Description:
    Section 6.4.1.10.1 states that an EAITimeSetOperator "processes a message (EAIMessageTimerCondition)..." (emphasis added). However, in Figure 6-43, EAIMessageTimerCondition is defined as a child of FCMCondition, not EAIMessageContent. Further, under the Constraints heading it is stated that "No more than one EAIMessageTimerCondition can apply to any single message in the timeSetConditions." But, as shown in Figure 6-42, the timeSetConditions are themselves EAIMessageTimerConditions, not messages, so it is not at clear what the constraint means.

    EAIMessageTimerCondition seems to be part of the dynamic state of a time-set operator, not its specification. What is needed instead really is a message format for representing a timer condition.

    Recommendation:
    Replace the EAIMessageTimerCondition with an EAITimerConditionFormat class that is a child of EAIMessageContent and has "timerCondition" and "correlationCondition" associations with FCMCondition.
