Creating UML models using the CORBA template model

You can create a UML model using the CORBA template model. The CORBA template model contains a basic CORBA infrastructure and tips on how to use UML to model CORBA IDL.

About this task

Use the CORBA template model to generate a UML model that contains a properly formatted CORBA model, and several UML elements such as packages, components, and interfaces. The CORBA type library is imported into the model, and the model contains shortcuts to CORBA primitive types, and guidelines for using UML to model CORBA.

You must be in the Modeling perspective.

To create a new UML project that contains a CORBA template model:

Procedure

  1. Click File > New > Project.
  2. In the New Project window, from the Wizards list, expand Modeling, and click UML Project.
  3. Click Next.
  4. In the Project name field, type a name.
  5. Click Next.
  6. In the Categories pane, click the General folder. In the Templates pane, select CORBA Model.
  7. In the File name field, type a name and click Finish. The new project is displayed in the Project Explorer view. The UML model in the project contains default UML elements and shortcuts to CORBA primitive types.
