Message ordering in sequence diagram [message #476344]

Hi,

I use TOPCASE UML editor to producing Eclipse UML2 files. If I draw a
sequence diagram that contains two lifelines and two messages between them,
I can see which message occurs first from the graphical representation, i.e.
time is running from top to down.

But how I can get this information from the Eclipse UML2 file? I have
inspected UML2 file as a tree structure, but I cannot find information about
the message order. Hence, where this information is stored? In addition, how
I can find this information by utilizing UML2 API?

Regard,
Antti Evesti
