Hello All,

currently I am working with an UML model (*.uml) and the UML 2.1 class diagram (*.umlclass) as parts of Eclipse EMF. I want to design a simple relationship.
There are two classes where each of them is contained in a separate package. Class 1 realizes an interface, Class 2 uses the same interface. The interface lays out of both packages.
My questions:
1) Why is the "interface realization" relation a child of Class 1, where the "interface dependency" or "usage" is a child of the parent package? Shouldn't it also be a child of Class 2?
2) Why are the relations not visible in the UML diagram? Only if the classes are out of the package, the relations are visible. Since they aren't visible I can not even create any relationship in the diagram.
3) How can I create different views of the same UML model? For example the one class diagram shows all classes and their relations and another one only a subset of it?

Thanks in advance and best regards
Tom

Hi Tom,

It's more likely that you meet the UML experts in the MDT or UML2 newsgroups.

Cheers
