Issue 8722: Misleading statement about multiplicity in AssociationClass (uml2-rtf) Source: NIST (Mr. Conrad Bock, conrad.bock(at)nist.gov) Nature: Clarification Severity: Minor Summary: Misleading statement about multiplicity in AssociationClass. In the semantics of AssociationClass, the following is misleading: " Note: It should be noted that in an instance of an association class, there is only one instance of the associated classifiers at each end, i.e. from the instance point of view, the multiplicity of the associations ends are 1." The part after "i,e." is confusing, since it refers to multiplicity of association ends, which has a different meaning that intended above. I'd say just delete it. Resolution: Revised Text: Actions taken: May 1, 2005: received issue Discussion: Due to lack of time, the RTF/FTF agrees that the following are problems that need fixing, but decided to defer their resolution to a future RTF working on this specification.
