UML14 — How does one indicate the target object for a CallState

  • Key: UML14-102
  • Legacy Issue Number: 5655
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: Texas Department of Human Services ( Srinivas Nedunuri)
  • Summary:

    How does one indicate the target object for a CallState (i.e. the actual
    object that executes the stated action/method)? If the target action takes
    no parameters then it may be possible to say that the target object is just
    the object flowing into the CallState. But what if it does take parameters?
    (e.g. the Person.Drive(to: Place) example in Fig. 3-88). That would require
    more than one object to be flowing into the CallState and leads to an
    ambiguity about which constitutes the target and which the parameter.

    P.S. The actual object may be passed around by the activity diagram, so it
    is not possible to show it statically on a swimlane (even if that is the
    recommended way)
