Methods

Convey_classifiers(object, object)

An information flow can only convey classifiers that are allowed to represent an information item. self.conveyed->forAll(oclIsKindOf(Class) or oclIsKindOf(Interface) or oclIsKindOf(InformationItem) or oclIsKindOf(Signal) or oclIsKindOf(Component))

bool Convey_classifiers(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

Must_conform(object, object)

The sources and targets of the information flow must conform to the sources and targets or conversely the targets and sources of the realization relationships.

bool Must_conform(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

Sources_and_targets_kind(object, object)

The sources and targets of the information flow can only be one of the following kind: Actor, Node, UseCase, Artifact, Class, Component, Port, Property, Interface, Package, ActivityNode, ActivityPartition, Behavior and InstanceSpecification except when its classifier is a relationship (i.e. it represents a link). (self.informationSource->forAll( sis | oclIsKindOf(Actor) or oclIsKindOf(Node) or oclIsKindOf(UseCase) or oclIsKindOf(Artifact) or oclIsKindOf(Class) or oclIsKindOf(Component) or oclIsKindOf(Port) or oclIsKindOf(Property) or oclIsKindOf(Interface) or oclIsKindOf(Package) or oclIsKindOf(ActivityNode) or oclIsKindOf(ActivityPartition) or (oclIsKindOf(InstanceSpecification) and not sis.oclAsType(InstanceSpecification).classifier->exists(oclIsKindOf(Relationship)))))

and

(self.informationTarget->forAll( sit | oclIsKindOf(Actor) or oclIsKindOf(Node) or oclIsKindOf(UseCase) or oclIsKindOf(Artifact) or oclIsKindOf(Class) or oclIsKindOf(Component) or oclIsKindOf(Port) or oclIsKindOf(Property) or oclIsKindOf(Interface) or oclIsKindOf(Package) or oclIsKindOf(ActivityNode) or oclIsKindOf(ActivityPartition) or (oclIsKindOf(InstanceSpecification) and not sit.oclAsType(InstanceSpecification).classifier->exists(oclIsKindOf(Relationship)))))

bool Sources_and_targets_kind(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
