UML22 — In section 7.3.12 Figure 7.38

  • Key: UML22-353
  • Legacy Issue Number: 11489
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: Anonymous
  • Summary:

    As described above the Figure 7.38 I think the arrow should point from Car to CarFactory.

  • Reported: UML 2.1.1 — Wed, 19 Sep 2007 04:00 GMT
  • Disposition: Resolved — UML 2.2
  • Disposition Summary:

    In the UML 2.5 specification, the corresponding figure is 7.19 in subclause 7.7.5. The direction of the
    dependency in the diagram is correct: the CarFactory instantiates Cars and so depends on the Car class, but
    the Car class does not need to depend on CarFactory specifically instantiating it.
    However, the text above the diagram says “the Car Class has a Dependency on the CarFactory Class”, which
    is incorrect.
    This also resolves duplicate issues 12405, 13136, 13947 and 17804.
