UMLR — Descendants rather than specializations

Open Closed All
  • Key: UMLR-596
  • Legacy Issue Number: 17778
  • Status: open  
  • Source: Oracle ( Dave Hawkins)
  • Summary:

    The Elements and Relationships sections both use the term "Descendants". Surely the term used here should be Specializations? I suspect this may be more widespread than just this section (7.2.4 contains another example).

    Proposed Resolution:

    Use specialization rather than descendants.
