Issue 10512: Section: 15 (uml2-rtf)
Source:  (, )
Nature: Enhancement
Severity: Minor
Summary: state machines: --------------- I can find a BNF for an behavioral transition but not for a protocol transition. Theres is no explanation why a protocol transition needs the "/" following the trigger. What for is the "/" ? The figure 15.15 on page 521 just shows a protocol trigger but there is no explanation. Wouldn't it be sufficient to write: [pre condition] trigger [post condition] Because of this everyone uses different notations...
