UML14 — UML 2 Super/Metamodel/package merge and visibility

Open Closed All
  • Key: UML14-243
  • Legacy Issue Number: 6189
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: Simula Research Laboratory ( Dr. Bran Selic)
  • Summary:

    The package merge rules say that private elements from the merged package are not merged into the merging package. However, this can result in inconsistencies if for example, an association is public but its ends are private. And it would not work at all for define merge since the merged types are not retained. The merge implementation currently ignores visibility
