forward

Defines the source object of the graphical connection.

Attribute name Usage Attribute values Default value Description
connector required Formula to the source object of a connection
multiplicity required 1
Integer value
*
Formula		 Multiplicity of the end of the connection
1 = x:1-connection
Integer value = x:n-connection; n has a fixed value
* = x:n-connection
Formula = x:n-connection; n is determined by the formula
onDisconnect optional overwriteDefault, keepDefault overwriteDefault, keepDefault Enables changes to be made to connections that otherwise are determined by the formula.
overwriteDefault = it is possible to change the calculated connection
keepDefault = it is not possible to change the calculated connection
Allowed sub-elements Quantity
none

ClosedExample code:

The following example shows the connection associations in the Planning_Diagram of the BodyshellWork model. The element <forward> evaluates the parameter Successor.

<reference id="OrderReference"
	type="connectable" src="=isInstanceEO() and
	isInstanceOf('BodyShellWork_Architecture.LevelComponents.Function')"
	target="=isInstanceEO() and
	isInstanceOf('BodyShellWork_Architecture.LevelComponents.Function')">
	<forward multiplicity="*" connector="=getParameter('Successor')"/>
	<backward multiplicity="*" connector="=getParameter('Predecessor')"/>
</reference>
