Interface CwmTypeAliasClass

All Superinterfaces:

RefBaseObject, RefClass, RefFeatured

All Known Implementing Classes:

CwmTypeAliasClass$Hib

public interface CwmTypeAliasClass
extends RefClass

TypeAlias class proxy interface. The TypeAlias class is intended to provide a renaming capability for Classifier instances. This class is required to support situations in which creation of an alias for a class effectively creates a new class. For example, CORBA IDL type aliases have different typeCodes than their base types and are therefore treated as distinct types.

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.
