public interface Variable extends ConnectableElement, MultiplicityElement
A Variable is a ConnectableElement that may store values during the execution of an Activity. Reading and writing the values of a Variable provides an alternative means for passing data than the use of ObjectFlows. A Variable may be owned directly by an Activity, in which case it is accessible from anywhere within that activity, or it may be owned by a StructuredActivityNode, in which case it is only accessible within that node.
The following features are supported:
UMLPackage.getVariable()| Modifier and Type | Method and Description |
|---|---|
java.util.Collection<VariableAction> |
get_variableActionOfVariable()
Returns the value of the 'variable Action Of Variable' reference list.
|
Activity |
getActivityScope()
Returns the value of the 'Activity Scope' container reference.
|
StructuredActivityNode |
getScope()
Returns the value of the 'Scope' container reference.
|
boolean |
has_variableActionOfVariable() |

setActivityScope(Activity value)
Sets the value of the '
Activity Scope' container
reference. |

Scope' container reference. |

It is bidirectional and its opposite is 'Variable'.
If the meaning of the 'variable Action Of Variable' reference list isn't clear, there really should be more of a description here...
