How to create Arrays in UML2? [message #472865]

Hi,

How do I specify a simple array in UML2 and then in EMF.

class A {

int[] myArray;

}

If I set "upper" property to Star, It's kind of converting it to EList.

Thanks
Pradeep

Pradeep,

Not sure if this is what you're looking for, but there is a code generator
option called 'Array Accessors' which will generate array-oriented accessors
for your features. Otherwise, there's no way to indicate that a UML property
is an array (or a list, for that matter) - this is typically considered an
implementation detail...

Kenn,

This would result in Integer [] not int[]. Can't he define a data type
with a stereo type that lets him specify int[] as the instance class
name? (I.e., something just like we have for Ecore's EByteArray.)

Hi Pradeep,

In addition to Kenn's sugestion, one thought might be to use template
bindings to a generic list or array. For the formal parameter of the list
you could substitue the UML primitive type integer. That won't exactly
produce the result you are looking for but could be one way to create a list
of integers.

Cheers,

- James.

Ooops, I overlooked that subtlety (thanks, Ed). Yes, of course that's =
possible using the EDataType stereotype.
