Interface GeneralizationFacade

All Superinterfaces:

ModelElementFacade

public interface GeneralizationFacade
extends ModelElementFacade

A taxonomic relationship between a more general classifier and a more specific classifier. Each instance of the specific classifier is also an indirect instance of the general classifier. Thus, the specific classifier inherits the features of the more general classifier. A generalization relates a specific classifier to a more general classifier, and is owned by the specific classifier. Metafacade interface to be used by AndroMDA cartridges.
