UMLR — Location: Page 286, 12.3.3 Semantics - Nonsensical alternative to stereotype name

  • Key: UMLR-543
  • Legacy Issue Number: 17962
  • Status: open  
  • Source: Oracle ( Dave Hawkins)
  • Summary:

    An alternative name is given for stereotypes:

    "If the ExtensionEnd is given a name, this name can be used in lieu of the stereotype name within the pair of guillemets when the stereotype is applied to a model element."

    Earlier, the specification of the extension end name is given as "extension_stereotypeName" so this is a rather bizarre option. When would this ever make sense?
