UML25 — UML2.5 issue: clause 7.7.5 does not correctly refer to Instantiate stereotype

  • Key: UML25-494
  • Legacy Issue Number: 18450
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: Model Driven Solutions ( Mr. Steve Cook)
  • Summary:

    In 7.7.5 «instantiate» is described and lower-cased as though it were a keyword. It sort of implies that Instantiate is a subclass of Dependency.

    In fact «Instantiate» is a standard stereotype. It should be referred to using upper case, and the text should explain that it is a standard stereotype applied to a Usage. The figure and caption will need changing.

    (Note: this example is also the topic of issue 17804, which is a separate matter about the direction of the arrow.)
