public interface ObjectMapping
An input element is usually transformed into one output element, known here as its primary corresponding element. The primary corresponding element
is notably used by the ReferenceManager to build references in the output model.
The input element might also generate additional elements in the output model (e.g. UML dependencies), known here as secondary elements.
Information stored in ObjectMapping instances is also used to build traceability matrices in the main operation log.
This interface is not intended to be implemented by clients.
