This content applies to version 7.5.4 or later. The
Software Services profile is an IBM® proprietary
UML profile that allows you to capture service details in UML models.
However, with the recent addition of the services modeling tools that
are based on the Service-oriented architecture Modeling Language (SoaML)
standard, UML models that have the Software Services profile applied
should migrate to the SoaML profile to take full advantage of SoaML
and the services modeling tools going forward.
Before you begin
When you open a UML model that contains the Software Services
profile, a window is displayed that notifies you that the profile
applied to it. You should take the following steps to migrate to the
SoaML profile.
About this task
To migrate from the Software Services profile to the SoaML
profile:
Procedure
- Open a UML model that has the Software Services profile
applied.
- In the Project Explorer view, right-click the root package
or model; then click Migrate to SoaML profile. The tool parses the model, and replaces Software Services
profile stereotypes with SoaML profile stereotypes.
- Save the model.
