UML14 — Predefined datatypes

  • Key: UML14-61
  • Legacy Issue Number: 4452
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: NIST ( Mr. Conrad Bock)
  • Summary:

    The various datatypes that are the result of expressions are not
    defined in UML. For example, there is no subtype of Datatype
    called Boolean. This means users will all define their own Boolean,
    Integer, etc., breaking interchangeability.

    The datatypes defined in the Datatypes packages are not model
    elements, so theoretically cannot be used in M1 models. However,
    the interchange model for UML includes these types, making them
    available for user models. If this is the case, it should be made
    clear in the UML spec. The overview of the Datatypes package
    (section 2.7.1) says it contains types used in defining UML, so
    they formally belong to the MOF.
