Interface Trigger

All Superinterfaces:

Element, org.eclipse.emf.ecore.EModelElement, org.eclipse.emf.ecore.EObject, NamedElement, org.eclipse.emf.common.notify.Notifier

public interface Trigger
extends NamedElement

A representation of the model object 'Trigger'. A Trigger specifies a specific point at which an Event occurrence may trigger an effect in a Behavior. A Trigger may be qualified by the Port on which the Event occurred.

From package UML::CommonBehavior.

The following features are supported:

• Event
• Port

Method Summary

Event	getEvent() Returns the value of the 'Event' reference
Port	getPort(java.lang.String name, Type type) Retrieves the first Port with the specified 'Name', and 'Type' from the 'Port' reference list
Port	getPort(java.lang.String name, Type type, boolean ignoreCase) Retrieves the first Port with the specified 'Name', and 'Type' from the 'Port' reference list
org.eclipse.emf.common.util.EList<Port>	getPorts() Returns the value of the 'Port' reference list.
void	setEvent(Event value) Sets the value of the 'Event' reference
boolean	validateTriggerWithPorts(org.eclipse.emf.common.util.DiagnosticChain diagnostics, java.util.Map<java.lang.Object,java.lang.Object> context) If a Trigger specifies one or more ports, the event of the Trigger must be a MessageEvent.

Method Detail

getEvent

Event getEvent()

Returns the value of the 'Event' reference. The Event that detected by the Trigger.

From package UML::CommonBehavior.

Returns:

the value of the 'Event' reference.

See Also:

setEvent(Event), UMLPackage.getTrigger_Event()

setEvent

void setEvent(Event value)

Sets the value of the 'Event' reference.

Parameters:

value - the new value of the 'Event' reference.

See Also:

getEvent()

getPorts

org.eclipse.emf.common.util.EList<Port> getPorts()

Returns the value of the 'Port' reference list. The list contents are of type Port. A optional Port of through which the given effect is detected.

From package UML::CommonBehavior.

Returns:

the value of the 'Port' reference list.

See Also:

UMLPackage.getTrigger_Port()

getPort

Port getPort(java.lang.String name,
             Type type)

Retrieves the first Port with the specified 'Name', and 'Type' from the 'Port' reference list.

Parameters:

name - The 'Name' of the Port to retrieve, or null.

type - The 'Type' of the Port to retrieve, or null.

Returns:

The first Port with the specified 'Name', and 'Type', or null.

See Also:

getPorts()

getPort

Port getPort(java.lang.String name,
             Type type,
             boolean ignoreCase)

Retrieves the first Port with the specified 'Name', and 'Type' from the 'Port' reference list.

Parameters:

name - The 'Name' of the Port to retrieve, or null.

type - The 'Type' of the Port to retrieve, or null.

ignoreCase - Whether to ignore case in String comparisons.

Returns:

The first Port with the specified 'Name', and 'Type', or null.

See Also:

getPorts()

validateTriggerWithPorts

boolean validateTriggerWithPorts(org.eclipse.emf.common.util.DiagnosticChain diagnostics,
                                 java.util.Map<java.lang.Object,java.lang.Object> context)

If a Trigger specifies one or more ports, the event of the Trigger must be a MessageEvent. port->notEmpty() implies event.oclIsKindOf(MessageEvent)

Parameters:

diagnostics - The chain of diagnostics to which problems are to be appended.

context - The cache of context-specific information.
