I need to use an association class: between players ( juagador) and games ( partit).
In the association class i need to save the position that the player had in that game. ( player can play different positions in different games along a league).

So i have to write two things: the relation between player and games ( one player can play zero or many games, one game is played by many players) and then add the association class....

note: posiciojugadorpartit is playerpositionintheGame

I have

Hi,

I'm not sure what the question is exactly; but it seems that both associations are redundant. Having only the AssociationClass should be sufficient (Since, I believe, the player can't have a position in a Game where he doesn't play).

So having just the AssociationClass, carrying the roles and multiplicities of the Association, should be fine.

Camille Letavernier sorry the question if im doing it the right way. In UML Standard when you draw the association class ( you can configure the right and left side of relationship ( one, 0, zero or more, one or more..) ) but in papyrus i cant ( as you can see in the image below) . Should be a kind of 3-ary relationship with player, game and position. I cant configure the relationship as in "normal association" i can, with two member ends, roles names, multiplicity, visibility.... i only can configure the association class

index.php/fa/32446/0/

So to assure i generated the code in Java, and if i only use the association class it doesnt appear the elements of the relationship ( in jugador ( player) has to appear an array of partits ( games) and identically in partit ( game) has to appear an array of jugadors (players) ). And it doesnt

I agree with you that is redundant but in papyrus i have to do it with two relations ( the association class and "the normal" association). So perhaps a bug or something to improve in papyrus, or im doing something wrong....

Hope i have explained myself better, sorry for my bad english.. ;) and thanks again for your help..

Hi,

It is indeed a bug in Papyrus, where AssociationClasses have the properties of a Class, but not the ones from the Association (They should have both)

You may still select the AssociationClass' member ends in the ModelExplorer directly, and define the roles/multiplicities there.

HTH,
Camille

Thanks im going mad.... is planned to be a patch in a near future ?
Are you a dev in PaPyrus ? Because i think also there is a bug with n-ary relationships. I wish to add a associated class in a 3-ary class and i cant. I would like to join Association class to the join point between classes, and i need to select two classes to insert an association class

I need to implement something like: a doctor, have visit one patient and set a diagnosisi. The visit has date and time. So id like to join the visit association class to the join point of the 3-ary relationship

Thanks for your help
