UMLR — Location: Page 265, 12.2.3 Semantics PackageMerge - Long-winded package merge description

  • Key: UMLR-556
  • Legacy Issue Number: 17950
  • Status: open  
  • Source: Oracle ( Dave Hawkins)
  • Summary:

    The paragraph starting "A PackageMerge can be viewed..." is a bit long-winded and contains lots of parentheses.

    Proposed Resolution:

    Simplify text, removing parentheses:

    A PackageMerge can be viewed as a set of transformations whereby the contents of the merged Package and the receiving Package are combined. Matching elements are merged into a single resulting element according to the formal rules of PackageMerge specified below. This is akin to “copying down” the features of superclasses into a subclass: the fully expanded subclass is the equivalent to the resulting package
