Class UML 2.5::UseCase

Description:

A UseCase specifies a set of actions performed by its subjects, which yields an observable result that is of value for one or more Actors or other stakeholders of each subject.

Direct Superclasses: BehavioredClassifier

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

Properties:

extend : Extend (0 *); -- source UseCase
extensionPoint : ExtensionPoint (0 *); -- source UseCase
include : Include (0 *); -- source UseCase
subject : Classifier (0 *); -- source UseCase
classifierBehavior : Behavior (0 1); -- source BehavioredClassifier
interfaceRealization : InterfaceRealization (0 *); -- source BehavioredClassifier
ownedBehavior : Behavior (0 *); -- source BehavioredClassifier
attribute : Property (0 *); -- source Classifier
collaborationUse : CollaborationUse (0 *); -- source Classifier
feature : Feature (0 *); -- source Classifier
general : Classifier (0 *); -- source Classifier
generalization : Generalization (0 *); -- source Classifier
inheritedMember : NamedElement (0 *); -- source Classifier
isAbstract : Boolean (1 1); -- source Classifier

If true, the Classifier can only be instantiated by instantiating one of its specializations. An abstract Classifier is intended to be used by other Classifiers e.g., as the target of Associations or Generalizations.
Default value: FALSE

Constraints:

No additional constraints.

Operations:

Signature: allIncludedUseCases() : UseCase;
Description: The query allIncludedUseCases() returns the transitive closure of all UseCases (directly or indirectly) included by this UseCase.
Expression: result = (self.include.addition->union(self.include.addition->collect(uc | uc.allIncludedUseCases()))->asSet())
