UMLR — Use cases and use of arrows

Open Closed All
  • Key: UMLR-287
  • Legacy Issue Number: 19012
  • Status: open  
  • Source: Change Vision ( Michael Chonoles)
  • Summary:

    Modelers often use arrows on the relationships between use cases and their actors. This is never explained/allowed/disallowed in the spec. One would think that if arrows are allowed, then qualifiers, ownership balls,

    {ordered}

    ,

    {unique}

    , etc. would also be allowed. Almost no one uses those arrows as true navigability. Perhaps some mention of the arrows is required and to allow for user determined semantics.
