UML25 — Actions need to be independent from Activities

Open Closed All
  • Key: UML25-573
  • Legacy Issue Number: 7552
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: XTG, LLC ( Joaquin Miller)
  • Summary:

    If we take Activity as fundamental, and consider that we can't specify something that happens with Action alone, shouldn't we remove the first sentence of the second paragraph of 11 Actions : 11.1 Overview : Basic Concepts:

    "An action is the fundamental unit of behavior specification."

  • Disposition Summary:

    Discussion
    An action is fundamental in that the behavior of an Activity is built up from Actions. An Activity does
    not have any behavior on its own. Actions can also be used to specify behavior within the context of an
    Interaction.
    Disposition: Closed - No Change
