    • Method Detail

      • isAbstract

        boolean isAbstract()
        Returns the value of the 'Is Abstract' attribute. The default value is "false". If true, the Classifier does not provide a complete declaration and can typically not be instantiated. An abstract classifier is intended to be used by other classifiers e.g. as the target of general metarelationships or generalization relationships.
        Returns:
        the value of the 'Is Abstract' attribute.
        See Also:
        setIsAbstract(boolean), UMLPackage.getClassifier_IsAbstract()
