public interface ExpansionNode
extends ObjectNode

A representation of the model object 'Expansion Node'. (ExtraStructuredActivities) An expansion node is an object node used to indicate a flow across the boundary of an expansion region. A flow into a region contains a collection that is broken into its individual elements inside the region, which is executed once per element. A flow out of a region combines individual elements into a collection for use outside the region.

The following features are supported:

Method Detail

getRegionAsOutput

public ExpansionRegion getRegionAsOutput()
Returns the value of the 'Region As Output' reference. It is bidirectional and its opposite is 'Output Element'.

If the meaning of the 'Region As Output' reference isn't clear, there really should be more of a description here...

expansion region for which the node is an output.

Returns:
the value of the 'Region As Output' reference.
See Also:
setRegionAsOutput(ExpansionRegion), UML2Package.getExpansionNode_RegionAsOutput(), ExpansionRegion.getOutputElements()

setRegionAsOutput

public void setRegionAsOutput(ExpansionRegion value)
Sets the value of the 'Region As Output' reference.

Parameters:
value - the new value of the 'Region As Output' reference.
See Also:
getRegionAsOutput()

getRegionAsInput

public ExpansionRegion getRegionAsInput()
Returns the value of the 'Region As Input' reference. It is bidirectional and its opposite is 'Input Element'.

If the meaning of the 'Region As Input' reference isn't clear, there really should be more of a description here...

expansion region for which the node is an input.

Returns:
the value of the 'Region As Input' reference.
See Also:
setRegionAsInput(ExpansionRegion), UML2Package.getExpansionNode_RegionAsInput(), ExpansionRegion.getInputElements()

setRegionAsInput

public void setRegionAsInput(ExpansionRegion value)
Sets the value of the 'Region As Input' reference.

Parameters:
value - the new value of the 'Region As Input' reference.
