How to connect multiplicities in a UML class diagram [message #235916] Mon, 18 June 2007 17:30 Go to next message

Hi,
I want to be able to add an association between multiplicities in a UML class diagram:
I have a class <i>AssociationFigure</i> which extends <i>PolylineConnection</i>; in its constructor I add two multiplicities like this:
<i>
ConnectionEndpointLocator sourceEndpointLocator = new ConnectionEndpointLocator(this, false);
add(fromMultiplicity, sourceEndpointLocator);

ConnectionEndpointLocator targetEndpointLocator = new ConnectionEndpointLocator(this, true);
add(toMultiplicity, targetEndpointLocator);
</i>

Where <i>fromMultiplicity</i> and <i>toMultiplicity</i> are two <i>MultiplicityFigure</i> which extends <i>Figure</i>.

The problem with that method is that I cannot select a <i>multiplicityFigure</i> and I cannot create an association from/to a <i>multiplicityFigure.</i>

Someone can help me? (I'm newbie in GEF ;) )

Connections are made between nodes. Your connections can also be nodes, by
making them targetable by the connection creation tool. The
GraphicalNodeEditPolicy is generally installed on the editpart that can be a
source/target of a connection, and it responds to targeting.
