public interface ConnectableElement
extends NamedElement, ParameterableElement

A representation of the model object 'Connectable Element'. A ConnectableElement is an abstract metaclass representing a set of instances that are owned by a containing classifier instance. Connectable elements may be joined by attached connectors and specify configurations of linked instances to be created within an instance of the containing classifier.

The following features are supported:

Method Detail

getEnds

public EList getEnds()
Returns the value of the 'End' reference list. The list contents are of type ConnectorEnd. It is bidirectional and its opposite is 'Role'.

If the meaning of the 'End' reference list isn't clear, there really should be more of a description here...

Denotes a connector that attaches to this connectable element.

Returns:
the value of the 'End' reference list.
