public interface TransientLinkManager
Theses links are virtual, have no restriction on the type of objects to connect and do never alter the models, while modeling link are reserved to model elements and will modify the related objects.
Transient links are particularly useful to add traceability between a source model element and a target model element.
This interface is not intended to be implemented by clients.
