Class UML 2.3::Interface

Description:

Since an interface specifies conformance characteristics, it does not own detailed behavior specifications. Instead, interfaces may own a protocol state machine that specifies event sequences and pre/post conditions for the operations and receptions described by the interface.

Direct Superclasses: Classifier

Direct Subclasses:

Class Precedence List: Interface, Classifier, TemplateableElement, Type, PackageableElement, ParameterableElement, Namespace, RedefinableElement, NamedElement, Element

Description: The visibility of all features owned by an interface must be public.
Expression: self.feature->forAll(f | f.visibility = #public)

Operations:

No additional operations.
