Example 3.6 (Composite structures, basic component, delegation connector)
Figure
3.6 shows an example for composite components and basic components. As the name indicates
Composite Component A has a composite structure. The behaviour of
Composite Component A results from its internal components. This allows hierarchical layers of components. Inside of the composite component multiple components, both basic and composite, can occur at the same time. Composite components can be used inside of other composite components again. For the usage of components there is no differentiation between composite and basic component. In the example
Basic Component A,
Basic Component B, and
Composite Component B appear at the same time as internal components.
