public interface Substitution
extends Realization

A representation of the model object 'Substitution'. A substitution is a relationship between two classifiers signifies that the substituting classifier complies with the contract specified by the contract classifier. This implies that instances of the substituting classifier are runtime substitutable where instances of the contract classifier are expected.

The following features are supported:

Method Detail

getContract

Classifier getContract()
Returns the value of the 'Contract' reference.

This feature subsets the following features:

The contract with which the substituting classifier complies.

Returns:
the value of the 'Contract' reference.
See Also:
setContract(Classifier), UMLPackage.getSubstitution_Contract()

setContract

void setContract(Classifier value)
Sets the value of the 'Contract' reference.

Parameters:
value - the new value of the 'Contract' reference.
See Also:
getContract()

getSubstitutingClassifier

Classifier getSubstitutingClassifier()
Returns the value of the 'Substituting Classifier' container reference. It is bidirectional and its opposite is 'Substitution'.

This feature subsets the following features:

Instances of the substituting classifier are runtime substitutable where instances of the contract classifier are expected.

Returns:
the value of the 'Substituting Classifier' container reference.
See Also:
setSubstitutingClassifier(Classifier), UMLPackage.getSubstitution_SubstitutingClassifier(), Classifier.getSubstitutions()

setSubstitutingClassifier

void setSubstitutingClassifier(Classifier value)
Sets the value of the 'Substituting Classifier' container reference.

Parameters:
value - the new value of the 'Substituting Classifier' container reference.
See Also:
getSubstitutingClassifier()
