Namespace

An InstanceSpecification is a model element that represents an instance in a modeled system. An InstanceSpecification can act as a DeploymentTarget in a Deployment relationship, in the case that it represents an instance of a Node. It can also act as a DeployedArtifact, if it represents an instance of an Artifact. <p>From package UML::Classification.</p>

Constructors

InstanceSpecification()

Creates a new instance

public InstanceSpecification()

Properties

Children

Gets the child model elements of this model element

public override IEnumerableExpression<IModelElement> Children { get; }

Property Value

IEnumerableExpression<IModelElement>

ClassInstance

Gets the Class model for this type

public static IClass ClassInstance { get; }

Property Value

IClass

Classifier

The Classifier or Classifiers of the represented instance. If multiple Classifiers are specified, the instance is classified by all of them. <p>From package UML::Classification.</p>

[XmlElementName("classifier")]
[XmlAttribute(true)]
public ISetExpression<IClassifier> Classifier { get; }

Property Value

ISetExpression<IClassifier>

OwningTemplateParameter

The formal TemplateParameter that owns this ParameterableElement. <p>From package UML::CommonStructure.</p>

[XmlElementName("owningTemplateParameter")]
[XmlAttribute(true)]
[XmlOpposite("ownedParameteredElement")]
public ITemplateParameter OwningTemplateParameter { get; set; }

Property Value

ITemplateParameter

ReferencedElements

Gets the referenced model elements of this model element

public override IEnumerableExpression<IModelElement> ReferencedElements { get; }

Property Value

IEnumerableExpression<IModelElement>

Slot

A Slot giving the value or values of a StructuralFeature of the instance. An InstanceSpecification can have one Slot per StructuralFeature of its Classifiers, including inherited features. It is not necessary to model a Slot for every StructuralFeature, in which case the InstanceSpecification is a partial description. <p>From package UML::Classification.</p>

[Browsable(false)]
[XmlElementName("slot")]
[XmlAttribute(false)]
[Containment]
[XmlOpposite("owningInstance")]
public IOrderedSetExpression<ISlot> Slot { get; }

Property Value

IOrderedSetExpression<ISlot>

Specification

A specification of how to compute, derive, or construct the instance. <p>From package UML::Classification.</p>

[Browsable(false)]
[XmlElementName("specification")]
[XmlAttribute(false)]
[Containment]
public IValueSpecification Specification { get; set; }

Property Value

IValueSpecification

TemplateParameter

The TemplateParameter that exposes this ParameterableElement as a formal parameter. <p>From package UML::CommonStructure.</p>

[XmlElementName("templateParameter")]
[XmlAttribute(true)]
[XmlOpposite("parameteredElement")]
public ITemplateParameter TemplateParameter { get; set; }

Property Value

ITemplateParameter

Methods

Defining_feature(object, object)

The definingFeature of each slot is a StructuralFeature related to a classifier of the InstanceSpecification, including direct attributes, inherited attributes, private attributes in generalizations, and memberEnds of Associations, but excluding redefined StructuralFeatures. slot->forAll(s | classifier->exists (c | c.allSlottableFeatures()->includes (s.definingFeature)))

public bool Defining_feature(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

Deployment_artifact(object, object)

An InstanceSpecification can act as a DeployedArtifact if it represents an instance of an Artifact. deploymentForArtifact->notEmpty() implies classifier->exists(oclIsKindOf(Artifact))

public bool Deployment_artifact(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

Deployment_target(object, object)

An InstanceSpecification can act as a DeploymentTarget if it represents an instance of a Node and functions as a part in the internal structure of an encompassing Node. deployment->notEmpty() implies classifier->exists(node | node.oclIsKindOf(Node) and Node.allInstances()->exists(n | n.part->exists(p | p.type = node)))

public bool Deployment_target(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

GetClass()

Gets the Class for this model element

public override IClass GetClass()

Returns

IClass

GetCollectionForFeature(string)

Gets the Model element collection for the given feature

protected override IList GetCollectionForFeature(string feature)

Parameters

feature string

The requested feature

Returns

IList

A non-generic list of elements

GetCompositionName(object)

Gets the property name for the given container

protected override string GetCompositionName(object container)

Parameters

container object

The container object

Returns

string

The name of the respective container reference

GetExpressionForReference(string)

Gets the property expression for the given reference

protected override INotifyExpression<IModelElement> GetExpressionForReference(string reference)

Parameters

reference string

The requested reference in upper case

Returns

INotifyExpression<IModelElement>

An incremental property expression

GetModelElementForReference(string, int)

Resolves the given URI to a child model element

protected override IModelElement GetModelElementForReference(string reference, int index)

Parameters

reference string

The requested reference name

index int

The index of this reference

Returns

IModelElement

The model element or null if it could not be found

GetRelativePathForNonIdentifiedChild(IModelElement)

Gets the relative URI fragment for the given child model element

protected override string GetRelativePathForNonIdentifiedChild(IModelElement element)

Parameters

element IModelElement

The element that should be looked for

Returns

string

A fragment of the relative URI

IsCompatibleWith(IParameterableElement)

The query isCompatibleWith() determines if this ParameterableElement is compatible with the specified ParameterableElement. By default, this ParameterableElement is compatible with another ParameterableElement p if the kind of this ParameterableElement is the same as or a subtype of the kind of p. Subclasses of ParameterableElement should override this operation to specify different compatibility constraints. result = (self.oclIsKindOf(p.oclType())) <p>From package UML::CommonStructure.</p>

public bool IsCompatibleWith(IParameterableElement p)

Parameters

p IParameterableElement

Returns

bool

IsTemplateParameter()

The query isTemplateParameter() determines if this ParameterableElement is exposed as a formal TemplateParameter. result = (templateParameter->notEmpty()) <p>From package UML::CommonStructure.</p>

public bool IsTemplateParameter()

Returns

bool

Namespace_needs_visibility(object, object)

A PackageableElement owned by a Namespace must have a visibility. visibility = null implies namespace = null

public bool Namespace_needs_visibility(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

Structural_feature(object, object)

No more than one slot in an InstanceSpecification may have the same definingFeature. classifier->forAll(c | (c.allSlottableFeatures()->forAll(f | slot->select(s | s.definingFeature = f)->size() <= 1)))

public bool Structural_feature(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
