Method Detail

getAnnotation

String getAnnotation()
Retrieves the possibly null value for the optional attribute annotation.

Provides an informal description of the Element.

Returns:
The possibly null value for attribute annotation.

setAnnotation

void setAnnotation(String annotation)
Sets a new value for the attribute annotation.

Provides an informal description of the Element.

Parameters:
annotation - The possibly null new value for attribute annotation.

getContainer

Namespace getContainer()
Retrieves the value for the reference container.

Returns:
The – possibly null – value for this reference.

setContainer

void setContainer(Namespace container)
Sets a new value for the reference container.

Parameters:
container - The non-null new value for this reference.

getElementOrder

Integer getElementOrder()
Retrieves the possibly null value for the optional attribute elementOrder.

Returns:
The possibly null value for attribute elementOrder.

setElementOrder

void setElementOrder(Integer elementOrder)
Sets a new value for the attribute elementOrder.

Parameters:
elementOrder - The possibly null new value for attribute elementOrder.

getName

String getName()
Retrieves the value for the attribute name.

Provides a meta-modeler supplied name that uniquely identifies the Element in the context of the ModelElement?s containing Namespace. When choosing an Element?s name, the meta-modeler should consider the rules for translating names into identifiers in the relevant mappings.

Returns:
The non-null value for attribute name.

setName

void setName(String name)
Sets a new value for the attribute name.

Provides a meta-modeler supplied name that uniquely identifies the Element in the context of the ModelElement?s containing Namespace. When choosing an Element?s name, the meta-modeler should consider the rules for translating names into identifiers in the relevant mappings.

Parameters:
name - The non-null new value for attribute name.

getQualifiedName

String getQualifiedName()
Retrieves the value for the attribute qualifiedName.

Provides a unique name for the Element within the context of its outermost containing Package. The qualifiedName is a list of NameType values consisting of the names of the Element, its container, its container?s container and so on until a non-contained element is reached. The first member of the list is the name of the non-contained element. The 'qualifiedName' of an Element is of the form :. is the full-qualified package name, i.e. org:omg:model1. Samples for 'qualifiedName':

Returns:
The non-null value for attribute qualifiedName.

setQualifiedName

void setQualifiedName(String qualifiedName)
Sets a new value for the attribute qualifiedName.

Provides a unique name for the Element within the context of its outermost containing Package. The qualifiedName is a list of NameType values consisting of the names of the Element, its container, its container?s container and so on until a non-contained element is reached. The first member of the list is the name of the non-contained element. The 'qualifiedName' of an Element is of the form :. is the full-qualified package name, i.e. org:omg:model1. Samples for 'qualifiedName':

Parameters:
qualifiedName - The non-null new value for attribute qualifiedName.

getSegment

Segment getSegment()
Retrieves the value for the reference segment.

Returns:
The non-null value for this reference.

getStereotype

Set<String> getStereotype()
Retrieves a set containing all the elements for the attribute stereotype.

Returns:
A set containing all elements for this attribute.

setStereotype

void setStereotype(String... stereotype)
Clears stereotype and adds the given value(s).

This method is equivalent to

   set.clear();
   set.addAll(Arrays.asList(stereotype));
 

Parameters:
stereotype - value(s) to be added to stereotype
