Constructor Detail

Constructor

public Constructor(ClassType owner)

Creates new constructor Constructor for a ClassType.

Constructor

protected Constructor(ru.novosoft.uml.foundation.core.MOperation mo,
                      ClassType owner)

Initialises new Constructor during loading.

Method Detail

getClassType

public ClassType getClassType()

Get the owner of this Constructor as a ClassType. Returns the same instance as Operation.getOwner().

Returns:

the ClassType to which this belongs

See Also:

ModelElement.getParentElement()

setAbstract

public Operation setAbstract(boolean isAbstract)

Override Operation.setAbstract(boolean) to prevent this Constructor being made abstract. Always throws an UnsupportedOperationException.

Overrides:

setAbstract in class Operation

Parameters:

isAbstract - ignored

Returns:

nothing - will always throw an exception

setStatic

public Operation setStatic(boolean isStatic)

Override Operation.setStatic(boolean) to prevent this Constructor being made static. Always throws an UnsupportedOperationException.

Overrides:

setStatic in class Operation

Parameters:

isStatic - ignored

Returns:

nothing - will always throw an exception

setQuery

public Operation setQuery(boolean isQuery)

Override Operation.setQuery(boolean) to prevent this Constructor being marked as query only. Always throws an UnsupportedOperationException.

Overrides:

setQuery in class Operation

Parameters:

isQuery - ignored

Returns:

nothing - will always throw an exception

addInitParameters

public java.util.List addInitParameters(java.util.List properties)

Add a Parameter to this Constructor corresponding to each of a set of Propertys. Each parameter is used to initialise the corresponding Attribute of the ClassType that owns this Constructor. The source of each Parameter is set to the underlying element of the corresponding Property.

Parameters:

properties - the Propertys which define the parameters. There must be an Attribute in the ClassType that contains this Constructor with the same ModelElement.getOriginalSource().

Returns:

the new Parameters

checkValid

public void checkValid()
                throws java.lang.IllegalStateException

Check whether this object is valid. Subclasses should call the superclass method if they override this method.

Overrides:

checkValid in class Operation

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalStateException - if a problem is found

add

protected void add(ModelElement me)

Override the superclass method to store the return parameter separately.

Overrides:

add in class Operation

Parameters:

me - The ModelElement to be added to the map Must not be null and its name property must not be null

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if mp already belongs to another Model or a ModelPackage
