  1. OMG Issue

UMLR — Abstraction::mapping should be of type ValueSpecification or OpaqueExpression

  • Key: UMLR-266
  • Legacy Issue Number: 16897
  • Status: open  
  • Source: Fraunhofer FOKUS ( Mr. Marc-Florian Wendland)
  • Summary:

    In many cases, modeler would like to specify the mapping of an Abstraction on an informal level by just providing a LiteralString or OpaqueExpression describing the mapping in a natural language.

    The necessity to use an Expression is for this kind of usage of this feature cumbersome and clunky.

    The resolution could be to use a more common metaclass of Expression, i.e. ValueSpecification, to provide the highest level of flexibility to the modeler, how mappings can be specified.
