UMLR — Clarify Property Qualifiers with a full Example

  • Key: UMLR-621
  • Legacy Issue Number: 19772
  • Status: open  
  • Source: Model Driven Solutions ( Dr. Edward Willink)
  • Summary:

    Figure 11.37 has an example with presumably an Association for:

    Bank::persons : Person[*]

    {opposites Person::banks}

    Person::banks : Bank[*]

    {opposites Bank::persons}

    adding explicit names for clarity.

    The qualifier presumably adds a nested Property

    Bank::persons::accountNo : Person[?]

    specifying an important multiplicity and a possibly redundant type, although a qualified association might perhaps return a derived type.

    Where is it modeled that the qualifier itself is Integer[1] or perhaps String[3]?

    Presumably an opposite qualifier is required and this must form part of a refined Association. If this is indeed the case it needs a better example. If it not the case, the alternative solution needs an example.
