Method Detail

getSortKeys

com.nomagic.magicdraw.uml.SortKeys getSortKeys()

Implementation of getSortKeys() from Sortable interface.

Returns:

the array of predefined sort keys.

getName

@OpenApi
@CheckForNull
java.lang.String getName()

Returns the name of the element. This element will return null always, because it can not have name. However the derived element may override this method and return specific name.

Returns:

name of the element.

getProjectImpl

Project getProjectImpl()

createSortKeys

com.nomagic.magicdraw.uml.ElementSortKeys createSortKeys()

getResourceID

java.lang.String getResourceID()

canAddChild

boolean canAddChild(BaseElement baseElement)

accept

@OpenApi
void accept(Visitor visitor)
     throws java.lang.Exception

Method accepts visitor, and calls method visit<class name>(this) of visitor . See Visitor pattern for more details.

Parameters:

visitor - which visits this element.

Throws:
