Issue 16493: UML 2.4: NamedElement.ownedRule could be ordered (uml2-rtf)
Source: Nomos Software (Dr. Edward Willink, ed(at)willink.me.uk)
Nature: Uncategorized Issue
Severity: 
Summary: Graphically, Constraints appear independently so the unordered
characteristric of NamedElement.ownRule seems sensible. However in a textual
rendering ordering is appropriate.


For instance, Constraints may sensibly be layered so that simple Constraints
come first and act as guards against redundant evaluation of later
Constraints.


For instance, when auto-generating a specification such as the OCL
specification, a specific ordering is required in the generated output.


Please change to {ordered}.
