public interface UMLPackage
extends Namespace, GeneralizableElement

A package is a grouping of model elements. In the metamodel, Package is a subclass of Namespace and GeneralizableElement. A Package contains ModelElements like Packages, Classifiers, and Associations. A Package may also contain Constraints and Dependencies between ModelElements of the Package. Each ModelElement of a Package has a visibility relative to the Package stating if the ModelElement is available to ModelElements in other Packages with a Permission («access» or «import») or Generalization relationship to the Package. An «access» or «import» Permission from one Package to another allows public ModelElements in the target Package to be referenced by ModelElements in the source Package. They differ in that all public ModelElements in imported Packages are added to the Namespace within the importing Package, whereas the Namespace within an accessing Package is not affected at all. The ModelElements available in a Package are those in the contents of the Namespace within the Package, which consists of owned and imported ModelElements, together with public ModelElements in accessed Packages.

Method Summary

Set	allContents() The operation allContents results in a Set containing the ModelElements owned by or imported by the Package or one of its ancestors.
Set	allImportedElements() The operation allImportedElements results in a Set containing the ModelElements imported by the Package or one of its parents.
Set	contents() The operation contents results in a Set containing the ModelElements owned by or imported by the Package.
Collection	getImportedElement() The namespace defined by a package is extended by model elements in other, imported packages.
