Commentary

Package dependency rlationship has two standard stereotypes: <<access>> and <<import>>. <<access>> refers to granting of permission for one package to reference the public elements owned by another package (subject to visibility). <<import>> refers to granting of permission for one package to reference the public elements of another package and to adding the names of the public elements of the supplier package to the client package.
