ElementConstraints:
Signature: non_owned_end() : Boolean;
Description: The non-owned end of an Extension is typed by a Class.
The OCL used here is not normative.Editor's notes: metaclass, not metaclass(). Classifier, not class
Expression: metaclass->notEmpty() and metaclass.oclIsKindOf(Classifier)
Original: metaclass()->notEmpty() and metaclass()->oclIsKindOf(Class)
Signature: is_binary() : Boolean;
Description: An Extension is binary, i.e., it has only two memberEnds.
Expression: memberEnd->size() = 2
Operations:
Signature: metaclassEnd() : Property;
Description: The query metaclassEnd() returns the Property that is typed by a metaclass (as opposed to a stereotype).
The OCL used here is not normative.Editor's notes: Borrowed from UML2.5
Expression: memberEnd->reject(p | ownedEnd->includes(p.oclAsType(ExtensionEnd)))->any(true)
Original: result = memberEnd->reject(ownedEnd)
Signature: metaclass.1() : Class;
Description: The query metaclass() returns the metaclass that is being extended (as opposed to the extending stereotype).
Expression: result = metaclassEnd().type
Signature: isRequired.1() : Boolean;
Description: The query isRequired() is true if the owned end has a multiplicity with the lower bound of 1.
Expression: result = (ownedEnd->lowerBound() = 1)
