Interface StereotypedElement

All Superinterfaces:
RefAssociation, RefBaseObject
All Known Implementing Classes:
StereotypedElement$Hib

public interface StereotypedElement
extends RefAssociation

StereotypedElement association proxy interface. The StereotypedElement association links Stereotypes with the ModelElements to which they apply.

Note: This type should not be subclassed, implemented or directly instantiated by clients. It is generated from a MOF metamodel and implemented by Enki or MDR.


Method Summary
 boolean add(CwmModelElement extendedElement, CwmStereotype stereotype)
          Creates a link between the pair of instance objects in the associations link set.
 boolean exists(CwmModelElement extendedElement, CwmStereotype stereotype)
          Queries whether a link currently exists between a given pair of instance objects in the associations link set.
 Collection<CwmModelElement> getExtendedElement(CwmStereotype stereotype)
          Queries the instance objects that are related to a particular instance object by a link in the current associations link set.
 CwmStereotype getStereotype(CwmModelElement extendedElement)
          Queries the instance object that is related to a particular instance object by a link in the current associations link set.
 boolean remove(CwmModelElement extendedElement, CwmStereotype stereotype)
          Removes a link between a pair of instance objects in the current associations link set.

Method Detail

exists

boolean exists(CwmModelElement extendedElement,
               CwmStereotype stereotype)
Queries whether a link currently exists between a given pair of instance objects in the associations link set.

Parameters:
extendedElement - Value of the first association end.
stereotype - Value of the second association end.
Returns:
Returns true if the queried link exists.

getExtendedElement

Collection<CwmModelElement> getExtendedElement(CwmStereotype stereotype)
Queries the instance objects that are related to a particular instance object by a link in the current associations link set.

Parameters:
stereotype - Required value of the second association end.
Returns:
Collection of related objects.

getStereotype

CwmStereotype getStereotype(CwmModelElement extendedElement)
Queries the instance object that is related to a particular instance object by a link in the current associations link set.

Parameters:
extendedElement - Required value of the first association end.
Returns:
Related object or null if none exists.

add

boolean add(CwmModelElement extendedElement,
            CwmStereotype stereotype)
Creates a link between the pair of instance objects in the associations link set.

Parameters:
extendedElement - Value of the first association end.
stereotype - Value of the second association end.

remove

boolean remove(CwmModelElement extendedElement,
               CwmStereotype stereotype)
Removes a link between a pair of instance objects in the current associations link set.

Parameters:
extendedElement - Value of the first association end.
stereotype - Value of the second association end.
