The standard type UnlimitedNatural is used to encode the non-negative values of a multiplicity specification. This includes a special unlimited value (*) that encodes the upper value of a multiplicity specification. UnlimitedNatural is itself an instance of the metatype UnlimitedNaturalType.
Note that UnlimitedNatural is not a subclass of Integer.
conformsTo
OclComparable
Operations
max(i : OclSelf[?]) : UnlimitedNatural[1]
The maximum of
self
an i.
min(i : OclSelf[?]) : UnlimitedNatural[1]
The minimum of
self
an i.
oclAsType(TT)(type : TT[?]) : TT[?] invalidating
Evaluates to
self
, where
self
is of the type identified by T.
The type T may be any classifier defined in the UML model;
if the actual type of
self
at evaluation time does not conform to T,
then the oclAsType operation evaluates to
invalid
.
The standard behavior is redefined for UnlimitedNatural. Numeric values may be converted to
Real or Integer, but the
unlimited value may not.
Conversion of
unlimited to Real or Integer returns
invalid
.
toInteger() : Integer[1] invalidating
Converts
self
to an Integer value unless
self
is
unlimited in which case
self
is converted to
invalid
.
