UML25 — Location: Page 313, 13.2.4 Notation relative

Open Closed All
  • Key: UML25-361
  • Legacy Issue Number: 17969
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: Change Vision ( Michael Chonoles)
  • Summary:

    Title: Relative to what?
    The concept of relative TimeEvent does not make sense unless a base Event is identified. This should be reflected in the metamodel diagrams and definitions. This is often a problem with timers in activity diagrams.

  • Disposition: Resolved — UML 2.5
  • Disposition Summary:

    Note: The correct Notation subclause reference is 13.3.4, not 13.2.4.
    In Subclause 13.3.3, under Time Events, it states “Relative TimeEvents shall always be used in the context of a Trigger,
    and the starting point is the time at which the Trigger becomes active.”
    Disposition: Closed - No Change
