You can map the property sets
of a
Rational Rose® model
to a new profile, map Rose model property sets an existing profile,
or skip the import of specific Rose model property sets using the
Map
Property Sets page of the
Rational Rose Model
Import wizard.
Before you begin
Before you map
Rational Rose property
sets to profiles in UML models, specify a model to import and resolve
any broken references to subunits on previous pages in the
Rational
Rose Model Import wizard.
About this task
Tip: Many Rational Rose models
contain property sets that are only used in round-trip engineering
(RTE). For example, the Rational Rose ANSI
C++ Add-In contains many C++ code generation model properties used
in RTE; however, these property sets are not useful after import.
Carefully examine the model property sets and identify ones that you
can ignore during the import process. Skipping unwanted property sets
is helpful because it reduces the size of the imported model and helps
to reduce profile clutter in the Navigator view.
To
map
Rational Rose property
sets to profiles:
Procedure
- To display all the options for importing Rational Rose property
sets, select the Import property sets as UML profiles check
box.
- Complete one of the following steps:
- To show the property sets that the model uses, click Only
used property sets.
- To show all property sets, including ones that are not used
in the model but are defined, click Both used and defined
property sets.
- In the Property sets table, select
a property set and complete one of the following steps: :
- To skip the property set so that it is not imported, click Ignore
this property set.
- To combine the contents of the property set with an existing
profile, click Reference an existing profile,
and specify a profile.
- To combine the contents of the property set with an existing
profile by using a pathmap, click Reference an existing
profile, and, from the Pathmap list, select a pathmap.
The pathmap lists all the profiles that it is linked with. Select
any of the available profiles.
- To change a property set into a new profile, click Convert
it to a new profile, and specify a project, location,
and name for the new profile.
- To change a property set into a new profile by using a pathmap,
click Convert it to a new profile, and select
the Use pathmap check box. From the Pathmap
list, select a pathmap and click Apply to all to
apply the selected pathmap to all the profiles that are listed in
the Property sets table. You can then view the applied pathmap of
each profile in the Path Map column of the Property sets table.
Tip: If the wizard displays any profile compatibility
errors when you reference an existing profile for a property set,
try to convert the profile as a new profile instead.
What to do next
Now you can map
Rational Rose stereotypes to profiles.
