UML 2.2 RTF Avatar
  1. OMG Issue

UML22 — Section: 7.2.8

  • Key: UML22-555
  • Legacy Issue Number: 7946
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: INSA ( Jean Louis Sourrouille)
  • Summary:

    In my opinion, the sentence "When a language is reflective, there is no need to define another language to specify its semantics." is false. Any natural language is reflective. However, just take a dictionary of a language that you don't know, you will not understand anything. In fact, the semantics of UML is described in english, not in UML, which explains that you can understand the metamodel.
