In the<BR>user manual, it is said that if you set the pattern cardinality to "-1", you<BR>negate that element. but I want to negate the element for only one<BR>association.<BR>For example, in my pattern I have three classes: classA, classB and classC.<BR>ClassA has a relation with ClassB and ClassC but I do not want ClassB to<BR>have a relation with ClassC. I want to negate ClassC for the<BR>association between ClassB and ClassC. But in my pattern if I set the<BR>pattern cardinality to -1, I can not show the whole pattern in one rule.
