Method Detail

exists

public boolean exists(GeneralizableElement child,
                      Generalization generalization)
Queries whether a link currently exists between a given pair of instance objects in the associations link set.

Parameters:
child - Value of the first association end.
generalization - Value of the second association end.
Returns:
Returns true if the queried link exists.

getChild

public GeneralizableElement getChild(Generalization generalization)
Queries the instance object that is related to a particular instance object by a link in the current associations link set.

Returns:
Related object or null if none exists.

getGeneralization

public Collection getGeneralization(GeneralizableElement child)
Queries the instance objects that are related to a particular instance object by a link in the current associations link set.

Returns:
Collection of related objects.

add
