Full quote If a reply Message does not have a signature, then the only argument that may be specified for it is a return argument as specified above. However, if the Message has a signature that is an Operation with out or inout ownedParameters, then output-arguments may be provided for these parameters. Next snippet An output-argument always explicitly names the parameter to which it is to be matched. Any parameters that are not named are considered to have implicit wildcard arguments. (There is thus no need for an explicit wildcard notation for output-arguments.) Related snippets 17.4.4.1 Message - A message is shown as a line from the sender MessageEnd to the receiver MessageEnd. The line must be such that every line fragment is either horizontal or downwards when traversed from send event to receive event. A reply Message (messageSort equals reply) has a dashed line with either an open or filled arrow head. A reply-message-label may optionally have an assignment-target given to the left of the message-name, with a corresponding returned value denoted by the optional value-specification given after a colon at the end of the reply-message-label.
