XMI12 — EmbeddedObject is misused

  • Key: XMI12-57
  • Legacy Issue Number: 3941
  • Status: open  
  • Source: DSTC ( Stephen Crawley)
  • Summary:

    Assuming that issue 3822 is resolved as Dave Frankel suggests, we have a
    problem with the way that the EmbeddedObject production is used in other
    productions; e.g. MvAttributeContents and SvAttributeContents. In these
    cases (and possibly others), EmbeddedObject may generate embedded XML
    for
    a Class instance that needs to be referenced (via an xmi.idref)
    elsewhere
    in the document. But the EmbeddedObject production does not include the
    necessary "xmi.id" attribute to make this work.

    The easiest solution is to get rid of the EmbeddedObject production
    altogether, and replace all uses with ObjectAsElement.
