Interface DependencyClient

All Superinterfaces:

RefAssociation, RefBaseObject

All Known Implementing Classes:

DependencyClient$Hib

public interface DependencyClient
extends RefAssociation

DependencyClient association proxy interface. The DependencyClient association links Dependency instances with ModelElements that act as clients in the represented dependency relationship.

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 client, CwmDependency clientDependency) Creates a link between the pair of instance objects in the associations link set.
boolean	exists(CwmModelElement client, CwmDependency clientDependency) Queries whether a link currently exists between a given pair of instance objects in the associations link set.
Collection<CwmModelElement>	getClient(CwmDependency clientDependency) Queries the instance objects that are related to a particular instance object by a link in the current associations link set.
Collection<CwmDependency>	getClientDependency(CwmModelElement client) Queries the instance objects that are related to a particular instance object by a link in the current associations link set.
boolean	remove(CwmModelElement client, CwmDependency clientDependency) Removes a link between a pair of instance objects in the current associations link set.

Method Detail

exists

boolean exists(CwmModelElement client,
               CwmDependency clientDependency)

Queries whether a link currently exists between a given pair of instance objects in the associations link set.

Parameters:

client - Value of the first association end.

clientDependency - Value of the second association end.

Returns:

Returns true if the queried link exists.

getClient

Collection<CwmModelElement> getClient(CwmDependency clientDependency)

Queries the instance objects that are related to a particular instance object by a link in the current associations link set.

Parameters:

clientDependency - Required value of the second association end.

Returns:

Collection of related objects.

getClientDependency

Collection<CwmDependency> getClientDependency(CwmModelElement client)

Queries the instance objects that are related to a particular instance object by a link in the current associations link set.

Parameters:

client - Required value of the first association end.

Returns:

Collection of related objects.

add

boolean add(CwmModelElement client,
            CwmDependency clientDependency)

Creates a link between the pair of instance objects in the associations link set.

Parameters:

client - Value of the first association end.

clientDependency - Value of the second association end.

remove

boolean remove(CwmModelElement client,
               CwmDependency clientDependency)

Removes a link between a pair of instance objects in the current associations link set.

Parameters:

client - Value of the first association end.

clientDependency - Value of the second association end.
