IMultiplicityElement Interface
Defines how many instances of an element can be appear in a given context such as an attribute, parameter, or association end. If Upper Bound > 1, the context contains a collection of the given type.

The IMultiplicityElement type exposes the following members.
Properties
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
.gif "Public property") |
ApplicableStereotypes | The set of stereotypes that could be applied to this element. (Inherited from IElement.) |
|
AppliedStereotypes | Each IStereotypeInstance denotes that a stereotype has been applied to this element. (Inherited from IElement.) |
|
Description | The description of this element. (Inherited from IElement.) |
|
IsOrdered | For multiplicity > 1. True if the elements in the collection form a sequence with a definite order. |
|
IsUnique | For multiplicity > 1. True if each value in the collection is different from the other values. Default = True. |
|
LowerValue | Gets the minimum number of elements allowed. Must be at least 0, and must not be *. |
|
OwnedComments | Gets Comments contained in this element (not comments linked to it). (Inherited from IElement.) |
|
OwnedElements | Gets Elements owned by this element. Every element has one owner, except the root IModel. (Inherited from IElement.) |
|
Owner | Gets the Element that owns this element. Every element except the root IModel has one owner. (Inherited from IElement.) |
|
UpperValue | Gets the maximum number of elements allowed. If *, there is no maximum. Must be at least 1. |
|
VisibleAppliedStereotypes | (Inherited from IElement.) |

|---|---|---|

AddReference | Links a string to an element, usually where the string is a reference such as a URI, modelbus reference, or work item ID. Use the name to indicate the type of reference. Returns an IReference object that represents the link. (Defined by UmlExtensions.) |
|
ApplyStereotype | Applies the stereotype to element. Creates an IStereotypeInstance that represents the extension of the model element by the stereotype. (Defined by ProfileStereotypeExtensions.) |
|
Delete | Deletes this element and any relationships, owned elements, and shapes. (Defined by UmlExtensions.) |
|
DeleteAllReference | Remove all the references of a given tag. (Defined by UmlExtensions.) |
|
GetBounds | The multiplicity as a string in the form [LowerValue]..[UpperValue]. (Defined by MultiplicityElementExtensions.) |
|
GetId | Gets a GUID that identifies this element. (Defined by UmlExtensions.) |
|
GetModelStore | Gets the IModelStore that contains this element. (Defined by UmlExtensions.) |
|
GetReferences | Get the IReferences of a given tag that are associated with this element. (Defined by UmlExtensions.) |
|
GetRelatedElements<T> | Gets elements related to this element by relationships of the specified type. (Defined by UmlExtensions.) |
|
GetRelatedLinks<T> | Gets relationships of a specified type from or to this element. (Defined by UmlExtensions.) |
|
SetBounds | Set the multiplicity LowerValue/UpperValue based on a string in the form [LowerValue]..[UpperValue]. [UpperValue] may be '*'. (Defined by MultiplicityElementExtensions.) |
|
Shapes | All the shapes that display the model element on any open diagram, or on a specified open diagram. (Defined by PresentationHelpers.) |

Remarks
Note
The methods defined on this type are extension methods. To use the methods, you must add a project reference to the .NET assembly Microsoft.VisualStudio.ArchitectureTools.Extensibility.dll, and you must include the directive using Microsoft.VisualStudio.ArchitectureTools.Extensibility.Uml; in your code.
