Interface Continuation

All Superinterfaces:

public interface Continuation
extends InteractionFragment

A representation of the model object 'Continuation'. A continuation is a syntactic way to define continuations of different branches of an alternative combined fragment. Continuations is intuitively similar to labels representing intermediate points in a flow of control.

The following features are supported:

• Setting

Method Summary

boolean	isSetting() Returns the value of the 'Setting' attribute.
void	setSetting(boolean value) Sets the value of the 'Setting' attribute
boolean	validateFirstOrLastInteractionFragment(org.eclipse.emf.common.util.DiagnosticChain diagnostics, java.util.Map<java.lang.Object,java.lang.Object> context) Continuations always occur as the very first InteractionFragment or the very last InteractionFragment of the enclosing InteractionFragment.
boolean	validateGlobal(org.eclipse.emf.common.util.DiagnosticChain diagnostics, java.util.Map<java.lang.Object,java.lang.Object> context) Continuations are always global in the enclosing InteractionFragment e.g. it always covers all Lifelines covered by the enclosing InteractionFragment.
boolean	validateSameName(org.eclipse.emf.common.util.DiagnosticChain diagnostics, java.util.Map<java.lang.Object,java.lang.Object> context) Continuations with the same name may only cover the same set of Lifelines (within one Classifier).

Method Detail

isSetting

boolean isSetting()

Returns the value of the 'Setting' attribute. The default value is "true". True: when the Continuation is at the end of the enclosing InteractionFragment and False when it is in the beginning.

Returns:

the value of the 'Setting' attribute.

See Also:

setSetting(boolean), UMLPackage.getContinuation_Setting()

setSetting

void setSetting(boolean value)

Sets the value of the 'Setting' attribute.

Parameters:

value - the new value of the 'Setting' attribute.

validateSameName

boolean validateSameName(org.eclipse.emf.common.util.DiagnosticChain diagnostics,
                         java.util.Map<java.lang.Object,java.lang.Object> context)

Continuations with the same name may only cover the same set of Lifelines (within one Classifier). true

Parameters:

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

context - The cache of context-specific information.

validateGlobal

boolean validateGlobal(org.eclipse.emf.common.util.DiagnosticChain diagnostics,
                       java.util.Map<java.lang.Object,java.lang.Object> context)

Continuations are always global in the enclosing InteractionFragment e.g. it always covers all Lifelines covered by the enclosing InteractionFragment. true

Parameters:

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

context - The cache of context-specific information.

validateFirstOrLastInteractionFragment

boolean validateFirstOrLastInteractionFragment(org.eclipse.emf.common.util.DiagnosticChain diagnostics,
                                               java.util.Map<java.lang.Object,java.lang.Object> context)

Continuations always occur as the very first InteractionFragment or the very last InteractionFragment of the enclosing InteractionFragment. true

Parameters:

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

context - The cache of context-specific information.
