UMLR — Location: Annex C Keywords P. 778 - Inconsistent metaclass keywords

Open Closed All
  • Key: UMLR-491
  • Legacy Issue Number: 18115
  • Status: open  
  • Source: Oracle ( Dave Hawkins)
  • Summary:

    There a number of keywords that are used when the same notation is used for multiple metaclasses. These aren't derived from the name of the metaclass in a consistent manner. For example, centralBuffer for CentralBufferNode, deployment spec for DeploymentSpecification, substitute for Substitution.

    Stereotypes are now given as their exact name, without transliteration or abbreviation. Should the same approach be used for metaclasses?
