Oracle Designer Model, Release 6i
Element Type Definition

Element Type Name	INTERFACE_USAGE
Short Name	CLAINC
View Name	CI_INTERFACE_USAGES
Description	An interface usage identifies an interface that is implemented by a
	classifier. Several classifiers can implement the same interface, and
	a classifier can implement several interfaces

Sub-type of	INTERSECTION
Versioning:	Belongs to: APPLICATION_MODULE versionable object ATTRIBUTE_DOMAIN versionable object ENTITY_OBJECT versionable object EVENT_CLASSIFIER versionable object GENERIC_CLASS versionable object INTERFACE_CLASSIFIER versionable object VIEW_OBJECT versionable object
Rules:	API Spec Uniqueness Criteria Deletion Rules
Descriptor:	CLASSIFIER_REFERENCE INTERFACE_CLASSIFIER_REFERENCE
Used by:	JDeveloper Enterprise Edition
Underlying table:	SDD_CLAINC

Reference Properties
Name	Opt ?	Notes	Relationship	In Arc
CLASSIFIER_REFERENCE	N	Prompt: Classifier Transferable only if null	Must be a usage in one and only one CLASSIFIER
INTERFACE_CLASSIFIER_REFERENCE	N	Prompt: Interface Transferable only if null	Must be a usage of one and only one INTERFACE_CLASSIFIER

Properties
Name	Datatype	Opt ?	Notes	Domain	Default Value
INTERFACE_TYPE	VARCHAR2(11)	N	Classification for this specific usage of the interface by the classifier Prompt: Interface Type Uppercase	INTERFACE_TYPE	IMPLEMENTED
INTERFACE_USAGE_BY	VARCHAR2(3)	N	Internal property indicating the type of classifier involved in this event usage Not displayed Uppercase System maintained Not updatable by user	INTERFACE_USAGE_BY
SEQUENCE	NUMBER(6, 0)	N	Sequence of the realised class within the interface Prompt: Sequence System maintained: API provides a value only if left null by the user
VISIBILITY	VARCHAR2(10)	Y	Visibility of the realized class. Specific to C++ Prompt: Visibility Uppercase	VISIBILITY
PARENT_IVID	NUMBER(38, 0)	Y	Internal use only. Common repository version identifier of owning PAC Not displayed System maintained Updatable only if null Defined on SE supertype
PAC_REFERENCE	NUMBER(38, 0)	Y	Internal use only. Contains the IRID of the PAC for the "versionable object" to which this element belongs Not displayed System maintained Not updatable by user Defined on SE supertype
