A redefinable element is an element that, when defined in the context of a classifier, can be redefined more specifically or differently in the context of another classifier that specializes (directly or indirectly) the context classifier.

Properties

ClassInstance

Gets the Class model for this type

public static IClass ClassInstance { get; }

Property Value

IClass

IsLeaf

Indicates whether it is possible to further redefine a RedefinableElement. If the value is true, then it is not possible to further redefine the RedefinableElement. Note that this property is preserved through package merge operations; that is, the capability to redefine a RedefinableElement (i.e., isLeaf=false) must be preserved in the resulting RedefinableElement of a package merge operation where a RedefinableElement with isLeaf=false is merged with a matching RedefinableElement with isLeaf=true: the resulting RedefinableElement will have isLeaf=false. Default value is false.

Methods

GetAttributeValue(string, int)

Resolves the given attribute name

protected override object GetAttributeValue(string attribute, int index)

Parameters

attribute string

The requested attribute name

index int

The index of this attribute

Returns

object

The attribute value or null if it could not be found

GetClass()

Gets the Class for this model element

public override IClass GetClass()

Returns

IClass

GetExpressionForAttribute(string)

Gets the property expression for the given attribute

protected override INotifyExpression<object> GetExpressionForAttribute(string attribute)

Parameters

attribute string

The requested attribute in upper case

Returns

INotifyExpression<object>

An incremental property expression

IsConsistentWith(IRedefinableElement)

The query isConsistentWith() specifies, for any two RedefinableElements in a context in which redefinition is possible, whether redefinition would be logically consistent. By default, this is false; this operation must be overridden for subclasses of RedefinableElement to define the consistency conditions. redefinee.isRedefinitionContextValid(self) result = false

public bool IsConsistentWith(IRedefinableElement redefinee)

Parameters

redefinee IRedefinableElement

Returns

bool

IsRedefinitionContextValid(IRedefinableElement)

The query isRedefinitionContextValid() specifies whether the redefinition contexts of this RedefinableElement are properly related to the redefinition contexts of the specified RedefinableElement to allow this element to redefine the other. By default at least one of the redefinition contexts of this element must be a specialization of at least one of the redefinition contexts of the specified element. result = redefinitionContext->exists(c | c.allParents()->includes(redefined.redefinitionContext)))

public bool IsRedefinitionContextValid(IRedefinableElement redefined)

Parameters

redefined IRedefinableElement

Returns

bool

Non_leaf_redefinition(object, object)

A redefinable element can only redefine non-leaf redefinable elements self.redefinedElement->forAll(not isLeaf)

public bool Non_leaf_redefinition(object diagnostics, object context)

Parameters

diagnostics object

The chain of diagnostics to which problems are to be appended.

context object

The cache of context-specific information.

Returns

bool

Redefinition_consistent(object, object)

A redefining element must be consistent with each redefined element. self.redefinedElement->forAll(re | re.isConsistentWith(self))

public bool Redefinition_consistent(object diagnostics, object context)

Parameters

diagnostics object

The chain of diagnostics to which problems are to be appended.

context object

The cache of context-specific information.

Returns

bool

Redefinition_context_valid(object, object)

At least one of the redefinition contexts of the redefining element must be a specialization of at least one of the redefinition contexts for each redefined element. self.redefinedElement->forAll(e | self.isRedefinitionContextValid(e))

public bool Redefinition_context_valid(object diagnostics, object context)

Parameters

diagnostics object

The chain of diagnostics to which problems are to be appended.

context object

The cache of context-specific information.

Returns

bool

SetFeature(string, object)

Sets a value to the given feature

protected override void SetFeature(string feature, object value)

Parameters

feature string

The requested feature

value object

The value that should be set to that feature
