UMLR — UML: No restrictions on what seem to be meaningless associations

  • Key: UMLR-475
  • Legacy Issue Number: 18186
  • Status: open  
  • Source: Simula Research Laboratory ( Dr. Bran Selic)
  • Summary:

    It seems possible to draw associations between any two kinds of types, including seemingly absurd combinations of associations between, say, an Interface and a Collaboration.Should there be constraints that prevent such combinations? If not, then the semantics of such combinations should be clarified.
