UML 2.2 RTF Avatar
  1. OMG Issue

UML22 — Section: Classes

  • Key: UML22-158
  • Legacy Issue Number: 9012
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: NIST ( Mr. Conrad Bock)
  • Summary:

    Associations can have static ends, but this violates the semantics of static (that they are properties of the class or subclasses, not instances). If we are following programming languages, the semantics of isStatic should be that it is properties of instances, but is the same on all instances. The current semantics would be the right one if isStatic identifies "metaproperties".

  • Disposition Summary:

    Discussion
    This is now covered by the text that says “Where semantics are not explicitly specified for static Features, those
    semantics are undefined” in clause 9.4.3, and also “The semantics are undefined for Associations that have an end
    with isStatic = true” in 16.6.3.
    Disposition: Closed - No Change
