Template:— assigning_potential_solution (asg_sol)
Capability:representing_work_request
Date: 2007/09/28 12:44:06
Revision: 1.10

This section specifies the template assigning_potential_solution.

NOTE  The template has been defined in the context of the capability representing_work_request which provides an overall description of the relevant parts of the ISO 10303-239 information model and a description of related templates.

NOTE  An explanation of a template and the associated instantiation path is provided in the Template overview section.

Description

This template describes how to represent a proposed solution for a work request.

Model diagrams
The EXPRESS-G diagram in Figure 1 shows the templates and EXPRESS entities that are required to represent the template "assigning_potential_solution". The text highlighted in blue shows the template parameters.

Input parameters
The following input parameters are defined for this template:
associated_request (Type= 'ENTITY (Work_request)' )
assigned_method (Type= 'ENTITY (Activity_method)' )
Reference parameters
The following reference parameters are defined for this template:
act_mthd_assgn(Type='ENTITY (Activity_method_assignment)')
Allow the Activity_method_assignment entity instantiated in this path to be referenced when this template is used.
Note: The Activity_method_assignment entity can be referenced in a template path by:
%^target = $assigning_potential_solution.act_mthd_assgn%
where target is the parameter to which the Activity_method_assignment is bound.
Instantiation path
The instantiation path shown below specifies the entities that are to be instantiated by the template.
A description of templates and the syntax for the instantiation path is provided in the Templates Help/Information section.
-- Instantiate the Activity_method_assignment
Activity_method_assignment
Activity_method_assignment.relation_type = '/IGNORE'

-- Bind the Activity_method_assignment to the parameter ^act_mthd_assgn.
-- The parameter is a reference parameter so the Activity_method_assignment
-- entity can be referred to when this template is used.
%^act_mthd_assgn = Activity_method_assignment%

-- Assign the Activity_method_assignment to the
-- to the instances passed into the template through the @associated_request
-- input parameter namely a Work_request
Activity_method_assignment.associated_request -> @associated_request

-- Assign the Activity_method_assignment to the
-- to the instances passed into the template through the @assigned_method
-- input parameter namely an Activity_method
Activity_method_assignment.assigned_method -> @assigned_method

-- Set the status
/assigning_reference_data(
    items=Activity_method_assignment,
    class_name='Potential_solution',
    ecl_id='urn:plcs:rdl:std')/
The following entities are instantiated with attributes as specified:
Entity in path Value Inherited from
Activity_method_assignment.relation_type '/IGNORE'
Instance diagrams
The instance diagram in Figure  3 shows an example of the EXPRESS entities and templates that are instantiated by the template:
/assigning_potential_solution(value='Bike must be light-weight')/
(an illustration of the consolidated assigning_potential_solution template is shown in Figure 4 below.)

The instance diagram in Figure 4 shows the graphic symbol for the template that is to be used in other instance diagrams. The example template is:
/assigning_potential_solution(value='Bike must be light-weight')/

Characterizations
No common characterizations of the template assigning_potential_solution have been identified. However, the ISO 10303-239 EXPRESS model may enable other assignments to the entities instantiated by the template.
