boolean validateNotStatic(org.eclipse.emf.common.util.DiagnosticChain diagnostics,
                          java.util.Map<java.lang.Object,java.lang.Object> context)
The association ends of the link end data must not be static. self.endData->forall(end.oclisKindOf(NavigableEnd) implies end.isStatic = #false

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