Issue 15047: Lack of graphical example of multi-element Dependency Notation (uml2-rtf) Source: Adaptive (Mr. Pete Rivett, pete.rivett(at)adaptive.com) Nature: Uncategorized Issue Severity: Summary: The Notation part of section 7.3.12 includes the following text but no graphical example. Furthermore the text seems less than clear (for example whether there must be a ‘junction’ (and whether shown as a point or a line) and whether each arrow entering the junction is required to have its own (open?) arrow head. I think that as a result of this few, if any, tools support this notation. “ It is possible to have a set of elements for the client or supplier. In this case, one or more arrows with their tails on the clients are connected to the tails of one or more arrows with their heads on the suppliers. A small dot can be placed on the junction if desired. A note on the dependency should be attached at the junction point.” Resolution: Revised Text: Actions taken: February 10, 2010: received issue Discussion: End of Annotations:===== ubject: Issues on UML 2.3 Superstructure Date: Wed, 10 Feb 2010 16:33:56 -0800 X-MS-Has-Attach: X-MS-TNEF-Correlator: Thread-Topic: Issues on UML 2.3 Superstructure Thread-Index: AcqqseV2uLXHGFg7QnGYwvQiPcHwGw== From: "Pete Rivett" To: 2.
