public interface Abstraction
extends Dependency

A representation of the model object 'Abstraction'. An abstraction is a relationship that relates two elements or sets of elements that represent the same concept at different levels of abstraction or from different viewpoints.

The following features are supported:

• Mapping

Method Detail

getMapping

OpaqueExpression getMapping()

Returns the value of the 'Mapping' containment reference.

This feature subsets the following features:

• 'Owned Element'

An composition of an Expression that states the abstraction relationship between the supplier and the client. In some cases, such as Derivation, it is usually formal and unidirectional; in other cases, such as Trace, it is usually informal and bidirectional. The mapping expression is optional and may be omitted if the precise relationship between the elements is not specified.

Returns:

the value of the 'Mapping' containment reference.

See Also:

setMapping(OpaqueExpression), UMLPackage.getAbstraction_Mapping()

setMapping

void setMapping(OpaqueExpression value)

Sets the value of the 'Mapping' containment reference.

Parameters:

value - the new value of the 'Mapping' containment reference.

See Also:

getMapping()

createMapping

OpaqueExpression createMapping(java.lang.String name,
                               Type type)

Creates a new OpaqueExpression,with the specified 'Name', and 'Type', and sets the 'Mapping' containment reference.

Parameters:

name - The 'Name' for the new OpaqueExpression, or null.

type - The 'Type' for the new OpaqueExpression, or null.

Returns:

The new OpaqueExpression.
