public interface Method
extends BehavioralFeature

A method is the implementation of an operation. It specifies the algorithm or procedure that effects the results of an operation. In the metamodel, a Method is a declaration of a named piece of behavior in a Classifier and realizes one (directly) or a set (indirectly) of Operations of the Classifier. There may be at most one method for a particular classifier (as owner of the method) and operation (as specification of the method) pairing.

Method Summary

ProcedureExpression	getBody() The implementation of the Method as a ProcedureExpression.

Operation	getSpecification() Designates an Operation that the Method implements.
void	setBody(ProcedureExpression body) Setter for atomic property body)
void	setProcedure(Procedure procedure) Setter for atomic property procedure)
void	setSpecification(Operation specification) Setter for atomic property specification)

Method Detail

getBody

ProcedureExpression getBody()
                            throws javax.jmi.reflect.JmiException

The implementation of the Method as a ProcedureExpression.

Throws:

javax.jmi.reflect.JmiException

setBody

void setBody(ProcedureExpression body)
             throws javax.jmi.reflect.JmiException

Setter for atomic property body)

Throws:

javax.jmi.reflect.JmiException

getSpecification

Operation getSpecification()
                           throws javax.jmi.reflect.JmiException

Designates an Operation that the Method implements. The Operation must be owned by the Classifier that owns the Method or be inherited by it. The signatures of the Operation and Method must match.

Throws:

javax.jmi.reflect.JmiException

setSpecification

void setSpecification(Operation specification)
                      throws javax.jmi.reflect.JmiException

Setter for atomic property specification)

Throws:

javax.jmi.reflect.JmiException

getProcedure

Procedure getProcedure()
                       throws javax.jmi.reflect.JmiException

Not documented in spec! from ::"Behavioral Elements"::"Common Behavior"::Procedure, pg. 2-95

Throws:

javax.jmi.reflect.JmiException

setProcedure

void setProcedure(Procedure procedure)
                  throws javax.jmi.reflect.JmiException

Setter for atomic property procedure)

Throws:

javax.jmi.reflect.JmiException
