public interface InteractionFragment
extends NamedElement

A representation of the model object 'Interaction Fragment'. InteractionFragment is an abstract notion of the most general interaction unit. An interaction fragment is a piece of an interaction. Each interaction fragment is conceptually like an interaction by itself.

The following features are supported:

Method Detail

getCovereds

org.eclipse.emf.common.util.EList<Lifeline> getCovereds()
Returns the value of the 'Covered' reference list. The list contents are of type Lifeline. It is bidirectional and its opposite is 'Covered By'. References the Lifelines that the InteractionFragment involves.

Returns:
the value of the 'Covered' reference list.
See Also:
UMLPackage.getInteractionFragment_Covered(), Lifeline.getCoveredBys()

getCovered

Lifeline getCovered(java.lang.String name)
Retrieves the first Lifeline with the specified 'Name' from the 'Covered' reference list.

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

getCovered

Lifeline getCovered(java.lang.String name,
                    boolean ignoreCase)
Retrieves the first Lifeline with the specified 'Name' from the 'Covered' reference list.

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

getGeneralOrderings

org.eclipse.emf.common.util.EList<GeneralOrdering> getGeneralOrderings()
Returns the value of the 'General Ordering' containment reference list. The list contents are of type GeneralOrdering.

This feature subsets the following features:

The general ordering relationships contained in this fragment.

Returns:
the value of the 'General Ordering' containment reference list.
See Also:
UMLPackage.getInteractionFragment_GeneralOrdering()

createGeneralOrdering

GeneralOrdering createGeneralOrdering(java.lang.String name)
Creates a new GeneralOrdering, with the specified 'Name', and appends it to the 'General Ordering' containment reference list.

Parameters:
name - The 'Name' for the new GeneralOrdering, or null.
Returns:
The new GeneralOrdering.
See Also:
getGeneralOrderings()

getGeneralOrdering

GeneralOrdering getGeneralOrdering(java.lang.String name)

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

getGeneralOrdering

GeneralOrdering getGeneralOrdering(java.lang.String name,
                                   boolean ignoreCase,
                                   boolean createOnDemand)
Retrieves the first GeneralOrdering with the specified 'Name' from the 'General Ordering' containment reference list.

Parameters:
name - The 'Name' of the GeneralOrdering to retrieve, or null.
ignoreCase - Whether to ignore case in String comparisons.
createOnDemand - Whether to create a GeneralOrdering on demand if not found.
Returns:
The first GeneralOrdering with the specified 'Name', or null.
See Also:
getGeneralOrderings()

getEnclosingInteraction
