UML22 — assembly connectors

Chapter 8.3.2
An assembly connector is a connector between two components that defines

that one component provides the services that another component
requires. An
assembly connector is a connector that is defined from a required
interface
or port to a provided interface or port.

All constraints are using terms "connector between Interface and Port"
also.
I suggest to change or remove this misleading text.

Agreed. This text is highly misleading in a number of ways:

(1) It suggests that connectors connect components. They actually connect
parts typed by components.

(2) It suggests that connectors connect interfaces – which they do not
(because only connectable elements can be connected and interfaces are not
connectable elements).

This complaint is handled by other resolutions, primarily 8900 and 9464.

Revised Text:
None.
Disposition: Duplicate of 8900 and 9464.
