Interface RangeMultiplicity

All Superinterfaces:

RefAssociation, RefBaseObject

All Known Implementing Classes:

RangeMultiplicity$Hib

public interface RangeMultiplicity
extends RefAssociation

RangeMultiplicity association proxy interface. The RangeMultiplicity association identifies the set of MultiplicityRange instances that specify the lower and upper bounds of individual cardinality ranges defined by a Multiplicity instance. A MultiplicityRange instance must be owned by a single Multiplicity instance.

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(CwmMultiplicity multiplicity, CwmMultiplicityRange range) Creates a link between the pair of instance objects in the associations link set.
boolean	exists(CwmMultiplicity multiplicity, CwmMultiplicityRange range) Queries whether a link currently exists between a given pair of instance objects in the associations link set.
CwmMultiplicity	getMultiplicity(CwmMultiplicityRange range) Queries the instance object that is related to a particular instance object by a link in the current associations link set.
Collection<CwmMultiplicityRange>	getRange(CwmMultiplicity multiplicity) Queries the instance objects that are related to a particular instance object by a link in the current associations link set.
boolean	remove(CwmMultiplicity multiplicity, CwmMultiplicityRange range) Removes a link between a pair of instance objects in the current associations link set.

Method Detail

exists

boolean exists(CwmMultiplicity multiplicity,
               CwmMultiplicityRange range)

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

Parameters:

multiplicity - Value of the first association end.

range - Value of the second association end.

Returns:

Returns true if the queried link exists.

getMultiplicity

CwmMultiplicity getMultiplicity(CwmMultiplicityRange range)

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

Parameters:

range - Required value of the second association end.

Returns:

Related object or null if none exists.

getRange

Collection<CwmMultiplicityRange> getRange(CwmMultiplicity multiplicity)

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

Parameters:

multiplicity - Required value of the first association end.

Returns:

Collection of related objects.

add

boolean add(CwmMultiplicity multiplicity,
            CwmMultiplicityRange range)

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

Parameters:

multiplicity - Value of the first association end.

range - Value of the second association end.

remove

boolean remove(CwmMultiplicity multiplicity,
               CwmMultiplicityRange range)

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

Parameters:

multiplicity - Value of the first association end.

range - Value of the second association end.
