public interface MultiplicityElement
extends Element

A representation of the model object 'Multiplicity Element'.

A multiplicity is a definition of an inclusive interval of non-negative integers beginning with a lower bound and ending with a (possibly infinite) upper bound. A MultiplicityElement embeds this information to specify the allowable cardinalities for an instantiation of the Element.

The following features are supported:

• Ordered
• Unique
• Lower
• Lower Value
• Upper Value
• Upper

See Also:

UMLPackage.getMultiplicityElement()

Method Detail

isOrdered

boolean isOrdered()

Returns the value of the 'Ordered' attribute. The default value is "false". For a multivalued multiplicity, this attribute specifies whether the values in an instantiation of this MultiplicityElement are sequentially ordered.

Returns:

the value of the 'Ordered' attribute.

See Also:

setOrdered(boolean), UMLPackage.getMultiplicityElement_Ordered()

setOrdered

void setOrdered(boolean value)

Sets the value of the 'Ordered' attribute.

Parameters:

value - the new value of the 'Ordered' attribute.

See Also:

isOrdered()

isUnique

boolean isUnique()

Returns the value of the 'Unique' attribute. The default value is "true". For a multivalued multiplicity, this attributes specifies whether the values in an instantiation of this MultiplicityElement are unique.

Returns:

the value of the 'Unique' attribute.

See Also:

setUnique(boolean), UMLPackage.getMultiplicityElement_Unique()

setUnique

void setUnique(boolean value)

Sets the value of the 'Unique' attribute.

Parameters:

value - the new value of the 'Unique' attribute.

See Also:

isUnique()

getUpper

int getUpper()

Returns the value of the 'Upper' attribute. The upper bound of the multiplicity interval.

Returns:

the value of the 'Upper' attribute.

See Also:

UMLPackage.getMultiplicityElement_Upper()

getLower

int getLower()

Returns the value of the 'Lower' attribute. The lower bound of the multiplicity interval.

Returns:

the value of the 'Lower' attribute.

See Also:

UMLPackage.getMultiplicityElement_Lower()

getUpperValue

@CheckForNull
ValueSpecification getUpperValue()

Returns the value of the 'Upper Value' containment reference. It is bidirectional and its opposite is 'Owning Upper'. The specification of the upper bound for this multiplicity.

Returns:

the value of the 'Upper Value' containment reference.

See Also:

setUpperValue(ValueSpecification), UMLPackage.getMultiplicityElement_UpperValue(), ValueSpecification.getOwningUpper()

setUpperValue

void setUpperValue(@CheckForNull
                   ValueSpecification value)

Sets the value of the 'Upper Value' containment reference.

Parameters:

value - the new value of the 'Upper Value' containment reference.

See Also:

getUpperValue()

getLowerValue

@CheckForNull
ValueSpecification getLowerValue()

Returns the value of the 'Lower Value' containment reference. It is bidirectional and its opposite is 'Owning Lower'. The specification of the lower bound for this multiplicity.

Returns:

the value of the 'Lower Value' containment reference.

See Also:

setLowerValue(ValueSpecification), UMLPackage.getMultiplicityElement_LowerValue(), ValueSpecification.getOwningLower()

setLowerValue

void setLowerValue(@CheckForNull
                   ValueSpecification value)

Sets the value of the 'Lower Value' containment reference.

Parameters:

value - the new value of the 'Lower Value' containment reference.
