Summary:
According to UML semantics, "when an object is destroyed, it is no longer classified under any Classifier" [UML 2.5.1, 16.4.3.2], which is realized operationally in fUML. The fUML specification states, further, that "since such [destroyed] objects do not have any types, they will have neither attributes nor behaviors" [fUML 1.4, 8.10.1, Destroy Object Actions].
However, while the Object::destroy operation (called by DestroyObjectActionActivation::destroyObject) does remove all of an Object's types, it leaves any FeatureValues that have been set for the Object. This means that the Object still effectively has values for the attributes of types it no longer has. This does not seem to be what would be expected from the text in either the UML or fUML specifications. It would be better if the FeatureValues of an Object were also removed when it was destroyed.
