Knowing what diagram an element belongs to in OCL [message #1611373] Wed, 11 February 2015 10:19 Go to next message
Eclipse UserFriend
Dear all,
I wonder if it's possible to know what elements belong to each diagram
in OCL.
My problem is that I would like to split a bigger diagram into smaller
ones, but for some constraints I would like to know the diagram where a
specific element (class, dependency, ...) is specified.
Is it possible?

Best,

Víctor

Hi

Not really. In UML you have the overall model for which each diagram
provides a very partial and selective view.

A particular model element may appear in none or many diagrams, so there
is no unique definition to find.

Naively you have to search the diagrams for graphical appearances. It
may be that Papyrus provides a helper API for this kind of search.

Thanks a lot Ed.
I thought that since diagrams is just a view of the model, it would not
be easy. I'll check if it's possible to relate the elements to their
graphical representation in the diagrams.

Best,

Víctor
