public interface Dependency
extends PackageableElement, DirectedRelationship

A representation of the model object 'Dependency'. A Dependency is a Relationship that signifies that a single model Element or a set of model Elements requires other model Elements for their specification or implementation. This means that the complete semantics of the client Element(s) are either semantically or structurally dependent on the definition of the supplier Element(s).

The following features are supported:

• Client
• Supplier
• collaboration Use Of Role Binding

See Also:

UMLPackage.getDependency()

Method Detail

get_collaborationUseOfRoleBinding

CollaborationUse get_collaborationUseOfRoleBinding()

Returns the value of the 'collaboration Use Of Role Binding' container reference. It is bidirectional and its opposite is 'Role Binding'.

If the meaning of the 'collaboration Use Of Role Binding' container reference isn't clear, there really should be more of a description here...

Returns:

the value of the 'collaboration Use Of Role Binding' container reference.

See Also:

set_collaborationUseOfRoleBinding(CollaborationUse), UMLPackage.getDependency__collaborationUseOfRoleBinding(), CollaborationUse.getRoleBinding()

set_collaborationUseOfRoleBinding

void set_collaborationUseOfRoleBinding(CollaborationUse value)

Sets the value of the 'collaboration Use Of Role Binding' container reference.

Parameters:

value - the new value of the 'collaboration Use Of Role Binding' container reference.

See Also:

get_collaborationUseOfRoleBinding()

getSupplier

java.util.Collection<NamedElement> getSupplier()

Returns the value of the 'Supplier' reference list. The list contents are of type NamedElement. It is bidirectional and its opposite is 'Supplier Dependency'. The Element(s) on which the client Element(s) depend in some respect. The modeler may stipulate a sense of Dependency direction suitable for their domain.

Returns:

the value of the 'Supplier' reference list.

See Also:

UMLPackage.getDependency_Supplier(), NamedElement.getSupplierDependency()

getClient

java.util.Collection<NamedElement> getClient()

Returns the value of the 'Client' reference list. The list contents are of type NamedElement. It is bidirectional and its opposite is 'Client Dependency'. The Element(s) dependent on the supplier Element(s). In some cases (such as a trace Abstraction) the assignment of direction (that is, the designation of the client Element) is at the discretion of the modeler and is a stipulation.

Returns:

the value of the 'Client' reference list.
