UML14 — UML 2 Super/pg.395/multiple meaning of exception

  • Key: UML14-272
  • Legacy Issue Number: 6223
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: Simula Research Laboratory ( Dr. Bran Selic)
  • Summary:

    pg. 395: Multiple meanings of exception (signal, stack mechanism). The use of exception to be a kind of signal was a mistake in UML1 that goes against all practice. We have now defined it (in the action semantics) to be a proper synchronous nonlinear control mechanism, as in all programming languages. Eliminate all references to it as a kind of signal, otherwise much confusion will ensue.
