KERML — validateMultiplicityRangeBoundResultTypes constraint is too strong

  • Key: KERML-199
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: Model Driven Solutions ( Mr. Ed Seidewitz)
  • Summary:

    The validateMultiplicityRangeBoundResultTypes constraint requires "The results of the bound Expression(s) of a MultiplicityRange must be typed by ScalarValues::Natural from the Kernel Data Types Library." However, multiplicity bounds are often given by literals, and the result type of LiteralInteger is actually Integer, which does not conform to Natural.

  • Disposition Summary:

    Update the validateMultiplicityRangeBoundResultTypes constraint

    Agreed. However, if a bound is model-level evaluable, then it can still be checked to have a non-negative value.
