Leila,
This post belongs in the eclipse.modeling.mdt.uml2.uml newsgroup.
The UML specification doesn't provide a standard way of correlating message
arguments to an enclosing interaction's parameters, other than the fact that
the types must match. Of course, if the argument is an expression, I suppose
you could referece the parameter by name...
