HUTN — 6.5 : Missing containment information when referencing class instances

  • Key: HUTN-1
  • Legacy Issue Number: 5811
  • Status: open  
  • Source: France Telecom R&D ( Mariano Belaunde)
  • Summary:

    When referencing an instance (ClassInstanceRef), the user needs to look at the metamodel in order
    to know if it is a contained reference or a non contained reference (BNF rules 22 and 23).
    Suggestion 1 for resolution: Use a "forward" prefix keyword when referencing contained instances that
    are fully represented in another place (that are not inlined).
    Suggestion 2 for resolution : Use a "ref" keyword when referencing non contained instances and use no
    keyword to reference contained instances not inlined.
    Note: The resolution of this issue may depend on the resolution of "need to improve readability when
    referencing instances"
