public interface Class
extends Type, Namespace, TemplateableElement

A representation of the model object 'Class'. A Class classifies a set of objects and specifies the features that characterize the structure and behavior of those objects. A Class may have an internal structure and Ports. A Classifier represents a classification of instances according to their Features. StructuredClassifiers may contain an internal structure of connected elements each of which plays a role in the overall Behavior modeled by the StructuredClassifier.

The following features are supported:

• Extenders
• Instance Class Name
• Is Abstract
• Is Active
• Is Interface
• Owned Behaviors
• Owned Invariants
• Owned Operations
• Owned Properties
• Owning Package
• Super Classes

Method Detail

getExtenders

@NonNull
java.util.List<StereotypeExtender> getExtenders()

Returns the value of the 'Extenders' reference list. The list contents are of type StereotypeExtender. It is bidirectional and its opposite is 'Class'.

If the meaning of the 'Extenders' reference list isn't clear, there really should be more of a description here...

Returns:

the value of the 'Extenders' reference list.

PivotPackage.getClass_Extenders(), StereotypeExtender.getClass_()

getInstanceClassName

java.lang.String getInstanceClassName()

Returns the value of the 'Instance Class Name' attribute.

If the meaning of the 'Instance Class Name' attribute isn't clear, there really should be more of a description here...

Returns:

the value of the 'Instance Class Name' attribute.

See Also:

setInstanceClassName(String), PivotPackage.getClass_InstanceClassName()

Generated

setInstanceClassName

void setInstanceClassName(java.lang.String value)

Sets the value of the 'Instance Class Name' attribute.

Parameters:

value - the new value of the 'Instance Class Name' attribute.

See Also:

getInstanceClassName()

Generated

isIsAbstract

boolean isIsAbstract()

Returns the value of the 'Is Abstract' attribute. The default value is "false". If true, the Class does not provide a complete declaration and cannot be instantiated. An abstract Class is typically used as a target of Associations or Generalizations. If true, the Classifier can only be instantiated by instantiating one of its specializations. An abstract Classifier is intended to be used by other Classifiers e.g., as the target of Associations or Generalizations.

Returns:

the value of the 'Is Abstract' attribute.

See Also:

setIsAbstract(boolean), PivotPackage.getClass_IsAbstract()

Generated

setIsAbstract

void setIsAbstract(boolean value)

Sets the value of the 'Is Abstract' attribute.

Parameters:

value - the new value of the 'Is Abstract' attribute.

See Also:

isIsAbstract()

Generated

isIsActive

boolean isIsActive()

Returns the value of the 'Is Active' attribute. The default value is "false". Determines whether an object specified by this Class is active or not. If true, then the owning Class is referred to as an active Class. If false, then such a Class is referred to as a passive Class.

Returns:

the value of the 'Is Active' attribute.

See Also:

setIsActive(boolean), PivotPackage.getClass_IsActive()

Generated

setIsActive

void setIsActive(boolean value)

Sets the value of the 'Is Active' attribute.

Parameters:
