Issue 15840: SBVR - Error in MeaningAndRepresentation-Model.xml (sbvr-rtf) Source: International Business Machines (Mr. Mark H. Linehan, mlinehan(at)us.ibm.com) Nature: Uncategorized Issue Severity: Summary: Line 58 of the MeaningAndRepresentation-Model.xml file reads as follows: <ownedMember xmi:type="cmof:Class" name="object type" xmi:id="objectType" superClass="concept"/> The "superClass" attribute says that an Object Type is a kind of "Concept". This is inconsistent with clause 8.1.1, which defines 'Object Type' as a kind of 'Noun Concept'. This inconsistency causes problems (for example) when populating the "nounConcept=" attribute of the XMI tag <sbvr:closedProjectionDefinesNounConcept> because only a nounConcept can be referenced by this attribute, and an objectType is not a kind of NounConcept. Proposed resolution: Change line 58 of the MeaningAndRepresentation-Model.xml file to read: <ownedMember xmi:type="cmof:Class" name="object type" xmi:id="objectType" superClass="nounConcept"/> -------------------------------- Resolution: Revised Text: Actions taken: November 23, 2010: received issue Discussion: End of Annotations:===== ubject: SBVR - Error in MeaningAndRepresentation-Model.xml X-KeepSent: F99BED11:D3E6AFA9-852577E4:00553637; type=4; name=$KeepSent X-Mailer: Lotus Notes Release 8.5.1FP1 SHF20 February 10, 2010 From: Mark H Linehan Date: Tue, 23 Nov 2010 10:45:54 -0500 X-MIMETrack: Serialize by Router on D01MC604/01/M/IBM(Release 8.0.2FP6|July 15, 2010) at 11/23/2010 10:45:55, Serialize complete at 11/23/2010 10:45:55 X-Content-Scanned: Fidelis XPS MAILER Summary: Line 58 of the MeaningAndRepresentation-Model.xml file reads as follows: The "superClass" attribute says that an Object Type is a kind of "Concept".
