Correspondingly, what is Interface realization in UML?
In UML diagrams, an interface realization relationship is a specialized type of implementation relationship between a classifier and a provided interface. The interface realization relationship specifies that the realizing classifier must conform to the contract that the provided interface specifies.
Similarly, it is asked, what are the relationships in UML?
Relationship in UML allows one thing to relate with other things inside the system. An association, dependency, generalization, and realization relationships are defined by UML. Composition relationship can also be used to represent that object can be a part of only one composite at a time.
An interface is a reference type in Java. It is similar to class. It is a collection of abstract methods. A class implements an interface, thereby inheriting the abstract methods of the interface. Along with abstract methods, an interface may also contain constants, default methods, static methods, and nested types.
