- Semantics
- The purpose of a class is to specify a classification of objects and to specify the features that characterize the structure and behavior of those objects.
- Objects of a class must contain values for each attribute that is a member of that class, in accordance with the characteristics of the attribute, for example its type and multiplicity.
- When an object is instantiated in a class, for every attribute of the class that has a specified default, if an initial value of the attribute is not specified explicitly for the instantiation, then the default value specification is evaluated to set ..
- Operations of a class can be invoked on an object, given a particular set of substitutions for the parameters of the operation.
- An operation invocation may cause changes to the values of the attributes of that object
- It may also return a value as a result, where a result type for the operation has been defined.
- Operation invocations may also cause changes in value to the attributes of other objects that can be navigated to, directly or indirectly, from the object on which the operation is invoked, to its output parameters, to objects navigable from its ..
- Operation invocations may also cause the creation and deletion of objects.
- A class cannot access private features of another class, or protected features on another class that is not its supertype.
- When creating and deleting associations, at least one end must allow access to the class.
