Classifier class proxy interface.
A classifier is an element that describes structural and behavioral
features; it comes in several specific forms, including class, data type,
interface, component, and others that are defined in other metamodel
packages.
Classifier is often used as a type.
In the metamodel, a Classifier may declare a collection of Features, such
as Attributes, Operations and Methods. It has a name, which is unique in
the Namespace enclosing the Classifier. Classifier is an abstract
metaclass.
Classifier is a child of Namespace. As a Namespace, a Classifier may
declare other Classifiers nested in its scope. Nested Classifiers may be
accessed by other Classifiers only if the nested Classifiers have adequate
visibility. There are no data value or state consequences of nested
Classifiers, i.e., it is not an aggregation or composition.
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.
