Issue 7430: Composite structures/Unspecified connector features (uml2-superstructure-ftf) Source: Softeam (Mr. Philippe Desfray, phd(at)softeam.fr) Nature: Uncategorized Issue Severity: Summary: Composite structures/Unspecified connector features between ports having multiple interfaces. What happens when ports have multiple interfaces, that in addition can mix required and provided interfaces? This is not specified. In particular, a connector could connect two ports using only a specified subset of the interfaces from both ports. Recommendation: Extend the metamodel to allow the specification of the interfaces used for a connector between ports having several interfaces. or Provide a default rule for that situation, such as the connector uses the compatible interfaces between the interfaces of both ports.
