Interface ImportedElements

All Superinterfaces:

RefAssociation, RefBaseObject

All Known Implementing Classes:

ImportedElements$Hib

public interface ImportedElements
extends RefAssociation

ImportedElements association proxy interface. The ImportedElements association identifies ModelElements that a Package instance imports from other Namespaces. Although any ModelElement may be imported by a Package, imported ModelElements are typically other Packages or aggregate Classifiers, such as Class instances.

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 importedElement, CwmPackage importer) Creates a link between the pair of instance objects in the associations link set.
boolean	exists(CwmModelElement importedElement, CwmPackage importer) Queries whether a link currently exists between a given pair of instance objects in the associations link set.
Collection<CwmModelElement>	getImportedElement(CwmPackage importer) Queries the instance objects that are related to a particular instance object by a link in the current associations link set.
Collection<CwmPackage>	getImporter(CwmModelElement importedElement) Queries the instance objects that are related to a particular instance object by a link in the current associations link set.
boolean	remove(CwmModelElement importedElement, CwmPackage importer) Removes a link between a pair of instance objects in the current associations link set.

Method Detail

exists

boolean exists(CwmModelElement importedElement,
               CwmPackage importer)

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

Parameters:

importedElement - Value of the first association end.

importer - Value of the second association end.

Returns:

Returns true if the queried link exists.

getImportedElement

Collection<CwmModelElement> getImportedElement(CwmPackage importer)

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

Parameters:

importer - Required value of the second association end.

Returns:

Collection of related objects.

getImporter

Collection<CwmPackage> getImporter(CwmModelElement importedElement)

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

Parameters:

importedElement - Required value of the first association end.

Returns:

Collection of related objects.

add

boolean add(CwmModelElement importedElement,
            CwmPackage importer)

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

Parameters:

importedElement - Value of the first association end.

importer - Value of the second association end.

remove

boolean remove(CwmModelElement importedElement,
               CwmPackage importer)

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

Parameters:

importedElement - Value of the first association end.

importer - Value of the second association end.
