Issue 13134: Section: 14.3.20 Actors in Interactions (uml2-rtf) Source: oose Innovative Informatik GmbH (Mr. Tim Weilkiens, tim.weilkiens(at)oose.de) Nature: Revision Severity: Significant Summary: It is common to model interactions with actors, e.g. to show scenarios how actors interact with the system. For example in the context of a collaboration it is possible to model lifelines that represent system actors. However it is not possible that they receive messages in an interaction. According to constraint [2] in chapter 14.3.20 each message must correspond to an operation or signal. But it is not allowed to have actors with operations or receptions.
