LinkEndData

All Superinterfaces:

Comparable<Object>, Element, EModelElement, EObject, MDWEObject, MDWObject, Notifier

All Known Subinterfaces:

LinkEndCreationData, LinkEndDestructionData
```
public interface LinkEndData
extends Element
```
A representation of the model object 'Link End Data'. A link end data is not an action. It is an element that identifies links. It identifies one end of a link to be read or written by the children of a link action. A link cannot be passed as a runtime value to or from an action. Instead, a link is identified by its end objects and qualifier values, if any. This requires more than one piece of data, namely, the statically-specified end in the user model, the object on the end, and the qualifier values for that end, if any. These pieces are brought together around a link end data. Each association end is identified separately with an instance of the LinkEndData class.
The following features are supported:

Method Summary

All Methods Instance Methods Abstract Methods
Modifier and Type	Method and Description
`QualifierValue`	`createQualifier()` Creates a new `QualifierValue` and appends it to the 'Qualifier' containment reference list

`MDWEList<QualifierValue>`	`getQualifiers()` Returns the value of the 'Qualifier' containment reference list.
`InputPin`	`getValue()` Returns the value of the 'Value' reference
`void`	`setEnd(Property value)` Sets the value of the '`End`' reference
`void`	`setValue(InputPin value)` Sets the value of the '`Value`' reference
`boolean`	`validateEndObjectInputPin(DiagnosticChain diagnostics, Map context)` The end object input pin is not also a qualifier value input pin.
`boolean`	`validateMultiplicity(DiagnosticChain diagnostics, Map context)` The multiplicity of the end object input pin must be 1..1.
`boolean`	`validatePropertyIsAssociationEnd(DiagnosticChain diagnostics, Map context)` The property must be an association end.
`boolean`	`validateQualifiers(DiagnosticChain diagnostics, Map context)` The qualifiers include all and only the qualifiers of the association end.
`boolean`	`validateSameType(DiagnosticChain diagnostics, Map context)` The type of the end object input pin is the same as the type of the association end.

  - getValue
```
InputPin getValue()
```
    Returns the value of the 'Value' reference. Input pin that provides the specified object for the given end. This pin is omitted if the link-end data specifies an 'open' end for reading.
    
    Returns:
    
    the value of the 'Value' reference.
    
    See Also:
    
    setValue(InputPin), UMLPackage.getLinkEndData_Value()
  - setValue
```
void setValue(InputPin value)
```
    Sets the value of the 'Value' reference.
    
    Parameters:
    
    value - the new value of the 'Value' reference.
    
    See Also:
    
    getValue()
  - getEnd
```
Property getEnd()
```
    Returns the value of the 'End' reference. Association end for which this link-end data specifies values.
    
    Returns:
    
    the value of the 'End' reference.
    
    See Also:
    
    setEnd(Property), UMLPackage.getLinkEndData_End()
  - setEnd
```
void setEnd(Property value)
```
    Sets the value of the 'End' reference.
    
    Parameters:
    
    value - the new value of the 'End' reference.
    
    See Also:
    
    getEnd()
  - getQualifiers
```
MDWEList<QualifierValue> getQualifiers()
```
    Returns the value of the 'Qualifier' containment reference list. The list contents are of type QualifierValue. List of qualifier values
    
    Returns:
    
    the value of the 'Qualifier' containment reference list.
    
    See Also:
    
    UMLPackage.getLinkEndData_Qualifier()
  - createQualifier
```
QualifierValue createQualifier()
```
    Creates a new QualifierValue and appends it to the 'Qualifier' containment reference list.
    
    Returns:
    
    The new QualifierValue.
    
    See Also:
    
    getQualifiers()
  - validatePropertyIsAssociationEnd
```
boolean validatePropertyIsAssociationEnd(DiagnosticChain diagnostics,
                                         Map context)
```
    The property must be an association end. self.end.association->size() = 1
  - validateSameType
```
boolean validateSameType(DiagnosticChain diagnostics,
                         Map context)
```
    The type of the end object input pin is the same as the type of the association end. self.value.type = self.end.type
  - validateMultiplicity
```
boolean validateMultiplicity(DiagnosticChain diagnostics,
                             Map context)
```
    The multiplicity of the end object input pin must be 1..1. self.value.multiplicity.is(1,1)
  - validateQualifiers
```
boolean validateQualifiers(DiagnosticChain diagnostics,
                           Map context)
```
    The qualifiers include all and only the qualifiers of the association end. self.qualifier->collect(qualifier) = self.end.qualifier
  - validateEndObjectInputPin
```
boolean validateEndObjectInputPin(DiagnosticChain diagnostics,
                                  Map context)
```
    The end object input pin is not also a qualifier value input pin. self.value->excludesAll(self.qualifier.value)
