UMLR — InstanceSpecification validity is not modelable

  • Key: UMLR-310
  • Legacy Issue Number: 19254
  • Status: open  
  • Source: Model Driven Solutions ( Dr. Edward Willink)
  • Summary:

    InstanceSpecifications may be used to indicate intermediate states in a transaction and so may not necessarily be valid.

    InstanceSpecification may be used to create test models and so should necessarily be valid.

    It is not easy for tooling to detect which is the design intent.

    Suggest adding an InstanceSpecification::isValidatable property to enable tools to behave usefully.
