Interface GeneralOrdering

All Superinterfaces:

Element, org.eclipse.emf.ecore.EModelElement, org.eclipse.emf.ecore.EObject, NamedElement, org.eclipse.emf.common.notify.Notifier

public interface GeneralOrdering
extends NamedElement

A representation of the model object 'General Ordering'. A general ordering represents a binary relation between two occurrence specifications, to describe that one occurrence specification must occur before the other in a valid trace. This mechanism provides the ability to define partial orders of occurrence cpecifications that may otherwise not have a specified order.

The following features are supported:

• Before
• After

Method Detail

getBefore

OccurrenceSpecification getBefore()

Returns the value of the 'Before' reference. It is bidirectional and its opposite is 'To After'. The OccurrenceSpecification referenced comes before the OccurrenceSpecification referenced by after.

Returns:

the value of the 'Before' reference.

See Also:

setBefore(OccurrenceSpecification), UMLPackage.getGeneralOrdering_Before(), OccurrenceSpecification.getToAfters()

setBefore

void setBefore(OccurrenceSpecification value)

Sets the value of the 'Before' reference.

Parameters:

value - the new value of the 'Before' reference.

See Also:

getBefore()

getAfter

OccurrenceSpecification getAfter()

Returns the value of the 'After' reference. It is bidirectional and its opposite is 'To Before'. The OccurrenceSpecification referenced comes after the OccurrenceSpecification referenced by before.

Returns:

the value of the 'After' reference.

See Also:

setAfter(OccurrenceSpecification), UMLPackage.getGeneralOrdering_After(), OccurrenceSpecification.getToBefores()

setAfter

void setAfter(OccurrenceSpecification value)

Sets the value of the 'After' reference.

Parameters:

value - the new value of the 'After' reference.
