Method Detail

getFactory

public static UseCasesFactory getFactory()
Singleton instance access method.


createExtend

public MExtend createExtend()
Create an empty but initialized instance of a Extend

Returns:
an initialized Extend instance.

createExtensionPoint

public MExtensionPoint createExtensionPoint()
Create an empty but initialized instance of a ExtensionPoint

Returns:
an initialized ExtensionPoint instance.

createActor

public MActor createActor()
Create an empty but initialized instance of a Actor

Returns:
an initialized Actor instance.

createInclude

public MInclude createInclude()
Create an empty but initialized instance of a Include

Returns:
an initialized Include instance.

createUseCase

public MUseCase createUseCase()
Create an empty but initialized instance of a UseCase

Returns:
an initialized UseCase instance.

createUseCaseInstance

public MUseCaseInstance createUseCaseInstance()
Create an empty but initialized instance of a UseCaseInstance

Returns:
an initialized UseCaseInstance instance.

buildExtend

public MExtend buildExtend(MUseCase base,
                           MUseCase extension)

Build an extend relationship.

Set the namespace to the base (preferred) or else extension's namespace. We don't do any checking on base and extension. They should be different, but that is someone else's problem.

Parameters:
base - The base use case for the relationship
extension - The extension use case for the relationship
Returns:
The new extend relationship or null if it can't be created.

buildExtend

public MExtend buildExtend(MUseCase base,
                           MUseCase extension,
                           MExtensionPoint point)

buildExtensionPoint

public MExtensionPoint buildExtensionPoint(java.lang.Object modelElement)

Build an extension point for a use case.

Set the namespace to that of the use case if possible.

Parameters:
modelElement - The owning use case for the extension point. May be null.
Returns:
The new extension point or null if it can't be created.

buildInclude

public MInclude buildInclude(MUseCase base,
                             MUseCase addition)

Build an include relationship.

Set the namespace to the base (preferred) or else extension's namespace. We don't do any checking on base and extension. They should be different, but that is someone else's problem.

Note. There is a bug in NSUML that gets the base and addition associations back to front. We reverse the use of their accessors in the code to correct this.

Parameters:
base - The base use case for the relationship
Returns:
The new include relationship or null if it can't be created.

buildActor

public MActor buildActor()
Builds an actor in the project's model namespace.

Returns:
MActor

buildActor

public MActor buildActor(MNamespace ns)
Builds an actor in the given namespace.

Parameters:
ns -
Returns:
MActor

deleteActor

public void deleteActor(MActor elem)

deleteExtend

public void deleteExtend(MExtend elem)

deleteExtensionPoint

public void deleteExtensionPoint(MExtensionPoint elem)

deleteInclude

public void deleteInclude(MInclude elem)

deleteUseCase

public void deleteUseCase(MUseCase elem)

deleteUseCaseInstance

public void deleteUseCaseInstance(MUseCaseInstance elem)
