Issue 4833: Use explicit references for MOF                                                                                                                                                                         (spem-ftf)
Source: Adaptive (Mr. Pete Rivett, pete.rivett@adaptive.com)
Nature: Uncategorized Issue
Severity: 
Summary: SPEM should use explicit references rather than leaving MOF to generate
them, driven by non-navigable association ends. This is because
non-navigability has a stronger effect in MOF than just not generating the
references, which compromises the ability to perform 'where used'
navigations. Adopting this approach will be consistent with UML and CWM
metamodels.

Resolution: Accept
Revised Text: Pete will make these changes to the model after all other changes have been made and prior to generating DTD and XMI. After all other changes have been made, the diagrams in the document are to be substituted with diagrams explicitly showing the references as follows:

7. Use explicit references for MOF
SPEM should use explicit references rather than leaving MOF to
generate
them, driven by non-navigable association ends. This is because
non-navigability has a stronger effect in MOF than just not generating
the
references, which compromises the ability to perform 'where used'
navigations. Adopting this approach will be consistent with UML and
CWM
metamodels.

On yesterday's call we finally resolved issues 4673, 4833 and 4980.


Issue 4673 had already been accepted.  We revised the resolution of
that
issue to include the correct package dependency diagram which
corresponds
to the XMI generation and which had been omitted from the earlier
resolution.


Issue 4833 had already been accepted. We revised the resolution to
change
several of the class diagrams in the spec to show the physical
references
from which the XMI is generated.


Issue 4980 had been accepted but remained a matter of debate.  We
revised
the resolution to adopt Pete's formulation, that the associations
between
WorkDefinition and Goal/Precondition were shown as derived in the
model
(hence no XMI generated), and we changed the OCL constraints to
restrict
the multiplicity to 1.


We voted on these resolutions on the call and the votes were as
follows:


Steve Cook Yes
Mariano Belaunde Yes
Philippe Kruchten Yes
Pete Rivett Yes
Louis Taborda Yes
Hiroshi Miyazaki Yes
