UML PROFILE FOR SAVECCM - Research

SaveUML profile
After the profile was included in the model, all of its elements will be accessible
in the model. Stereotype for each element can be selected in the Properties view
of a model element under "Stereotypes" tab, as shown in Figure 6-1.
Figure 6-1:
Applying stereotype – Properties view
Stereotype can be chosen in the "Apply Stereotypes" pop-up menu as shown in
Figure 6-2 (a). It is important to note that there is a large number of stereotypes
available in UML, therefore the stereotypes from the applied profile will be
available among them. Figure 6-2 (a) shows a list of available stereotypes for a
UML Component. After selecting a stereotype, it is rendered as a name enclosed
by guillemets (French quotation marks of the form « »), placed above the name of
modelling element. A component Internal Sensors with SaveComponent
stereotype applied is depicted in Figure 6-2 (b).

Applying stereotype – available stereotypes
In addition, after a stereotype is applied its tagged values are available in the
Properties view, and can be edited entering a value in the "Value" cell, as it is
shown in Figure 6-3.
