Propagating stereotypes for all components [message #476917]

Hello,

Is it possible to define and connect a UML profile to the component diagram,
i.e. component element, in a way that propagates all stereotypes from the
profile for all the components inside the diagram? Now, I have to connect a
stereotype separately for each component and this is laborious task if there
is dozens components.

I mentioned following statement from the UML superstructure
A profile should be able to specialize the semantics of standard UML
metamodel elements. For example, in a model with the profile "Java model,"
generalization of classes should be able to be restricted to single
inheritance without having to explicitly assign a stereotype

Hi Antti,

When you create your uml::Extension, you can set the isRequired() to true.
Later, when the profile is applied, all required stereotypes will also be
applied.

In this way, you would not have to apply each Stereotype individually.

I'm not sure if this is exactly what you were looking for.

Cheers,
- James.

Thanks! That was exactly what I meant.
