UML25 — Owning Comments

Open Closed All
  • Key: UML25-231
  • Legacy Issue Number: 17776
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: Change Vision ( Michael Chonoles)
  • Summary:

    All comments should be owned.
  • Reported: UML 2.4.1 — Tue, 25 Sep 2012 04:00 GMT
  • Disposition: Resolved — UML 2.5
  • Disposition Summary:

    The owningElement property opposite Element::ownedComment is optional. But the Element::has_owner constraint
    enforces the fact that all Comments (as kinds of Elements) must be owned. Having ownedElement for a Comment be
    optional simply allows for the possibility of a case in which a Comment (or some subclass of Comment) may have
    some specialized ownership other than the generic owningElement/ownedComment association (even though there is
    currently no such case in the UML metamodel).
    This also closes duplicate Issue 17779.
    Disposition: Closed - No Change
