ASSOCIATIONS:
In addition to the
common associationsRelationship to Comments that are applied to the Event Action Block.
Multiplicity is 0+, access is read/write.
Relationship to Constraints that are applied to the Event Action Block.
Multiplicity is 0+, access is read/write.
Relationship to the Operation that is used for a Call trigger.
The Call Event association applies only when the EAB Type is set to Call.
Multiplicity is 0-1, access is read/write.
Change Event
Relationship to a Change Event object that stores the text of the Change Expression (Change trigger type) and Time Expression (Time trigger type) properties.
