public interface ParameterableElement
extends Element

A representation of the model object 'Parameterable Element'. A parameterable element is an element that can be exposed as a formal template parameter for a template, or specified as an actual parameter in a binding of a template.

The following features are supported:

Method Detail

getTemplateParameter

TemplateParameter getTemplateParameter()
Returns the value of the 'Template Parameter' reference. It is bidirectional and its opposite is 'Parametered Element'. The template parameter that exposes this element as a formal parameter.

Returns:
the value of the 'Template Parameter' reference.
See Also:
setTemplateParameter(TemplateParameter), UMLPackage.getParameterableElement_TemplateParameter(), TemplateParameter.getParameteredElement()

setTemplateParameter

void setTemplateParameter(TemplateParameter value)
Sets the value of the 'Template Parameter' reference.

Parameters:
value - the new value of the 'Template Parameter' reference.
See Also:
getTemplateParameter()

getOwningTemplateParameter

TemplateParameter getOwningTemplateParameter()
Returns the value of the 'Owning Template Parameter' container reference. It is bidirectional and its opposite is 'Owned Parametered Element'.

This feature subsets the following features:

The formal template parameter that owns this element.

Returns:
the value of the 'Owning Template Parameter' container reference.
See Also:
setOwningTemplateParameter(TemplateParameter), UMLPackage.getParameterableElement_OwningTemplateParameter(), TemplateParameter.getOwnedParameteredElement()

setOwningTemplateParameter

void setOwningTemplateParameter(TemplateParameter value)
Sets the value of the 'Owning Template Parameter' container reference.

Parameters:
value - the new value of the 'Owning Template Parameter' container reference.
See Also:
getOwningTemplateParameter()

isCompatibleWith

boolean isCompatibleWith(ParameterableElement p)
The query isCompatibleWith() determines if this parameterable element is compatible with the specified parameterable element. By default parameterable element P is compatible with parameterable element Q if the kind of P is the same or a subtype as the kind of Q. Subclasses should override this operation to specify different compatibility constraints. result = p->oclIsKindOf(self.oclType)


isTemplateParameter

boolean isTemplateParameter()
The query isTemplateParameter() determines if this parameterable element is exposed as a formal template parameter. result = templateParameter->notEmpty()
