          <documentation>
              A pattern or base for derived types used to specify complex
              types corresponding to a UML aggregation association. An
              instance of this type serves as a pointer to a remote Object.

Method Details

getTarget

public QName getTarget()

Returns:

The qualified name of the target for the binding.

getType
