public interface ClassifierTemplateParameter
extends TemplateParameter

A representation of the model object 'Classifier Template Parameter'. A classifier template parameter exposes a classifier as a formal template parameter.

The following features are supported:

Method Detail

isAllowSubstitutable

boolean isAllowSubstitutable()
Returns the value of the 'Allow Substitutable' attribute. The default value is "true". Constrains the required relationship between an actual parameter and the parameteredElement for this formal parameter.

Returns:
the value of the 'Allow Substitutable' attribute.
See Also:
setAllowSubstitutable(boolean), UMLPackage.getClassifierTemplateParameter_AllowSubstitutable()

setAllowSubstitutable

void setAllowSubstitutable(boolean value)
Sets the value of the 'Allow Substitutable' attribute.

Parameters:
value - the new value of the 'Allow Substitutable' attribute.
See Also:
isAllowSubstitutable()

getConstrainingClassifiers

org.eclipse.emf.common.util.EList<Classifier> getConstrainingClassifiers()
Returns the value of the 'Constraining Classifier' reference list. The list contents are of type Classifier. The classifiers that constrain the argument that can be used for the parameter. If the allowSubstitutable attribute is true, then any classifier that is compatible with this constraining classifier can be substituted; otherwise, it must be either this classifier or one of its subclasses. If this property is empty, there are no constraints on the classifier that can be used as an argument.

Returns:
the value of the 'Constraining Classifier' reference list.
See Also:
UMLPackage.getClassifierTemplateParameter_ConstrainingClassifier()

getConstrainingClassifier

Classifier getConstrainingClassifier(java.lang.String name)
Retrieves the first Classifier with the specified 'Name' from the 'Constraining Classifier' reference list.

Parameters:
name - The 'Name' of the Classifier to retrieve, or null.
Returns:
The first Classifier with the specified 'Name', or null.
See Also:
getConstrainingClassifiers()

getConstrainingClassifier

Classifier getConstrainingClassifier(java.lang.String name,
                                     boolean ignoreCase,
                                     org.eclipse.emf.ecore.EClass eClass)
Retrieves the first Classifier with the specified 'Name' from the 'Constraining Classifier' reference list.

Parameters:
name - The 'Name' of the Classifier to retrieve, or null.
ignoreCase - Whether to ignore case in String comparisons.
eClass - The Ecore class of the Classifier to retrieve, or null.
Returns:
The first Classifier with the specified 'Name', or null.
See Also:
getConstrainingClassifiers()

validateHasConstrainingClassifier

boolean validateHasConstrainingClassifier(org.eclipse.emf.common.util.DiagnosticChain diagnostics,
                                          java.util.Map<java.lang.Object,java.lang.Object> context)
If "allowSubstitutable" is true, then there must be a constrainingClassifier. allowSubstitutable implies constrainingClassifier->notEmpty()

Parameters:
diagnostics - The chain of diagnostics to which problems are to be appended.
context - The cache of context-specific information.
