Interface CreateObjectAction

All Superinterfaces:
Action, ActivityNode, Element, EModelElement, EObject, ExecutableNode, NamedElement, Notifier, RedefinableElement

public interface CreateObjectAction
extends Action

A representation of the model object 'Create Object Action'. A create object action is an action that creates an object that conforms to a statically specified classifier and puts it on an output pin at runtime.

The following features are supported:

Method Detail

getClassifier

public Classifier getClassifier()
Returns the value of the 'Classifier' reference. Classifier to be instantiated.

Returns:
the value of the 'Classifier' reference.
See Also:
CreateObjectAction.setClassifier(Classifier), UMLPackage.getCreateObjectAction_Classifier()

setClassifier

public void setClassifier(Classifier value)
Sets the value of the 'Classifier' reference.

Parameters:
value - the new value of the 'Classifier' reference.
See Also:
CreateObjectAction.getClassifier()

getResult

public OutputPin getResult()
Returns the value of the 'Result' containment reference. Gives the output pin on which the result is put.

Returns:
the value of the 'Result' containment reference.
See Also:
CreateObjectAction.setResult(OutputPin), UMLPackage.getCreateObjectAction_Result()

setResult

public void setResult(OutputPin value)
Sets the value of the 'Result' containment reference.

Parameters:
value - the new value of the 'Result' containment reference.
See Also:
CreateObjectAction.getResult()

createResult

public OutputPin createResult(String name,
                              Type type)
Creates a new OutputPin,with the specified 'Name', and 'Type', and sets the 'Result' containment reference.

Parameters:
name - The 'Name' for the new OutputPin, or null.
type - The 'Type' for the new OutputPin, or null.
Returns:
The new OutputPin.
See Also:
CreateObjectAction.getResult()

validateClassifierNotAbstract

public boolean validateClassifierNotAbstract(DiagnosticChain diagnostics,
                                             Map context)
The classifier cannot be abstract. not (self.classifier.isAbstract = #true)


validateClassifierNotAssociationClass

public boolean validateClassifierNotAssociationClass(DiagnosticChain diagnostics,
                                                     Map context)
