Interface Clause

All Superinterfaces:
Element, org.eclipse.emf.ecore.EModelElement, org.eclipse.emf.ecore.EObject, org.eclipse.emf.common.notify.Notifier

public interface Clause
extends Element

A representation of the model object 'Clause'. A clause is an element that represents a single branch of a conditional construct, including a test and a body section. The body section is executed only if (but not necessarily if) the test section evaluates true.

The following features are supported:
