EXPRESS_ — The EntityType class has two properties with the same name 'attributes'

  • Key: EXPRESS_-23
  • Legacy Issue Number: 14082
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: TopQuadrant ( David Price)
  • Summary:

    The EntityType class has two properties with the same name -
    'attributes'.

    Proposed Resolution: Rename one of the properties.

  • Reported: EXPRESS 1.0b2 — Thu, 16 Jul 2009 04:00 GMT
  • Disposition: Resolved — EXPRESS 1.0
  • Disposition Summary:

    The 'entity-has-attributes' association is depicted in Figure 13. The "other property" is depicted in Figure 14, but it is depicted as <<implicit>>, meaning that it is a diagram convention only, as described in Clause 6 - a representation of the association in Figure 13 as inherited by InvertibleAttribute. So there is only one property that is named: EntityType:attributes.
    The problem is that the CMOF file contains two distinct associations with the same names, because the tooling did not understand the <<implicit>> association to be a diagram convention.
