Constraint
A Constraint defines a rule that restricts the state or behavior of one or more elements in the meta-model. When a Constraint is attached to a ModelElement, the rule it encodes applies to all relevant instances of the ModelElement in a model.
A Constraint rule, represented by the 'expression' attribute, may be encoded in any form. The 'language' attribute may be used to denote the language and encoding scheme used.
While some Constraints on a model may need to be treated as invariant, it is often convenient for other Constraints to be relaxed, for instance while a model is being edited. While, the 'evaluationPolicy' attribute is used to represent these two cases, this information is at best advisory, since the MOF specification does not currently state how and when Constraints should be enforced.
