ENTITY - Container
| Description | Abstract Concept
A Container is a collection of Building Blocks whose existence and meaning are defined by the Container. A Container is both: 1. A Lexical Scope: the meaning and usage of a Building Block is only applicable within the context of the Container to which it belongs. 2. A universe of discourse: the complete range of Building Blocks that are expressed, assumed, or implied in an architecture domain. Examples: - Library - Enterprise
The Packaging domain defines the core elements of Building Block and Container which provide the basis for building modules. | ||
