UML14 — Signature conflicts across an inheritance hierarchy

Open Closed All
  • Key: UML14-752
  • Legacy Issue Number: 1186
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: Anonymous
  • Summary:

    Summary: If in a multiple inheritance graph we have an operation defined in two
    different ancestors of a class, the model is ill formed, although such a
    situation is very likely to happen in real life.
    Proposal: adopt a more relaxed semantics such as that of C++ or Eiffel
    for
    such a situation.
