IGeneralization Interface

 

A relationship between two classifiers in which the Specific classifier inherits and augments some features of the General classifier. Depending on how the features are defined, the instances of the specific classifier might also be considered instances of the general classifier.

public interface class IGeneralization : IDirectedRelationship, 
	IRelationship, IElement

NameDescription
System_CAPS_pubpropertyApplicableStereotypes

The set of stereotypes that could be applied to this element. (Inherited from IElement.)

System_CAPS_pubpropertyAppliedStereotypes

Each IStereotypeInstance denotes that a stereotype has been applied to this element.(Inherited from IElement.)

System_CAPS_pubpropertyDescription

The description of this element. (Inherited from IElement.)

System_CAPS_pubpropertyGeneral

The classifier that is specialized by the specific classifier.

System_CAPS_pubpropertyIsSubstitutable

True if instances of the Specific classifier should be acceptable wherever instances of the General classifier are required.

System_CAPS_pubpropertyOwnedComments

Gets Comments contained in this element (not comments linked to it). (Inherited from IElement.)

System_CAPS_pubpropertyOwnedElements

Gets Elements owned by this element. Every element has one owner, except the root IModel.(Inherited from IElement.)

System_CAPS_pubpropertyOwner

Gets the Element that owns this element. Every element except the root IModel has one owner.(Inherited from IElement.)

System_CAPS_pubpropertySource

The source element of the relationship. (Inherited from IDirectedRelationship.)

System_CAPS_pubpropertySourceElement

Source element of the relationship. (Inherited from IRelationship.)

System_CAPS_pubpropertySpecific

The classifier defined by adding information to the generalizing classifier.

System_CAPS_pubpropertyTarget

The target element of the relationship. (Inherited from IDirectedRelationship.)

System_CAPS_pubpropertyTargetElement

Target element of the relationship. (Inherited from IRelationship.)

System_CAPS_pubpropertyVisibleAppliedStereotypes

(Inherited from IElement.)

NameDescription
System_CAPS_pubmethodAddReference(String^, String^, Boolean)

Links a string to an element, usually where the string is a reference such as a URI, modelbus reference, or work item ID. Use the name to indicate the type of reference. Returns an IReference object that represents the link.(Defined by UmlExtensions.)

System_CAPS_pubmethodApplyStereotype(IStereotype^)

Applies the stereotype to element. Creates an IStereotypeInstance that represents the extension of the model element by the stereotype.(Defined by ProfileStereotypeExtensions.)

System_CAPS_pubmethodDelete()

Deletes this element and any relationships, owned elements, and shapes.(Defined by UmlExtensions.)

System_CAPS_pubmethodDeleteAllReference(String^)

Remove all the references of a given tag.(Defined by UmlExtensions.)

System_CAPS_pubmethodGetId()

Gets a GUID that identifies this element.(Defined by UmlExtensions.)

System_CAPS_pubmethodGetModelStore()

Overloaded. Gets the IModelStore that contains this element.(Defined by UmlExtensions.)

System_CAPS_pubmethodGetReferences(String^)

Get the IReferences of a given tag that are associated with this element.(Defined by UmlExtensions.)

System_CAPS_pubmethodGetRelatedElements<T>()

Gets elements related to this element by relationships of the specified type.(Defined by UmlExtensions.)

System_CAPS_pubmethodGetRelatedLinks<T>()

Gets relationships of a specified type from or to this element.(Defined by UmlExtensions.)

System_CAPS_pubmethodShapes(IDiagram^)

Overloaded. All the shapes that display the model element on any open diagram, or on a specified open diagram.(Defined by PresentationHelpers.)

System_CAPS_noteNote

The methods defined on this type are extension methods. To use the methods, you must add a project reference to the .NET assembly Microsoft.VisualStudio.ArchitectureTools.Extensibility.dll, and you must include the directive using Microsoft.VisualStudio.ArchitectureTools.Extensibility.Uml; in your code.
