The following ballot comment was
made against the state modules.
I am not sure that it was discussed
in Seattle.
What do people
think?
Should the state_transition
subtypes be able to relate sets of state_definitions?
If this is a PLCS requirement, then
I propose that we reject the comment.
Ballot comment
DE-46, DE-45
The state_relationship attributes
related and relating are SETs of states. This is very unusual in the overall
STEP modeling (see also 10303-41 E.3 Relationship template:
object_relationship). The semantic of subtypes of state_relationship becomes
by this very questionable. Grouping of states can always be achieved by
composition_of_state. We have to avoid redundant mechanisms to achieve
things.(6) Proposal: Change attributes related and relating to be of type
state (not SET of state).
