UML22 — Notation of Attributes and Associations subsections

  • Key: UML22-972
  • Legacy Issue Number: 8774
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: oose Innovative Informatik eG ( Mr. Tim Weilkiens)
  • Summary:

    Notation of Attributes and Associations subsections in the whole specification should be consistently follow the rules: Every entry must include * attribute/association end name * its type * its multiplicity: you should NOT omit this even if it maps to the default value of *. Also, both upper and lower multiplicities should be provided; i.e., NOT "[*]" but "[0..*]") * ALL modifiers such as subsets and redefines. When referencing other association ends, use the following convention: "<metaclass-name>::<association-end-name> (do NOT use the "." notation for this) * if something is derived, the explanation should be given how it is derived and an OCL formula might have to be provided.

  • Disposition Summary:

    Discussion: Most of these issues have been resolved through numerous editorial changes that were intended to ensure consistency. The exceptions are:
    „h the use of * instead of 0..* – simply not worth the effort given that the two are equivalent. It will take a lot of effort to do this with no real value; chances are that this will NEVER get done. There is no point in keeping the issue open.
    „h The derivation specification already has another open issue.
    Revised Text: N/A Disposition: Closed, no change
