MappingRational Rose user-defined types to custom model libraries in UML models

You can map user-defined types of a Rational Rose® model to a new custom model library, map user-defined types to an existing model library using the Map Rose User Types page of the Rational Rose Model Import wizard.

Before you begin
Before you map user-defined types to custom model library 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
  1. To convert user-defined types to primitive or class types, complete one of the following steps:
    • To convert user-defined types to primitive types, click Convert Rose user-defined types to primitive types. By default, this option is selected.
    • To convert user-defined types to class class, click Convert Rose user-defined types to class types.
  2. To map the user-defined types to the custom model library, select the Convert Rose custom types as model library check box, and complete one of the following steps:
    • To combine the user-defined types with one or more existing model libraries, select the Map to existing model libraries check box, and specify the model libraries from the deployed profile or the existing workspace.
    • To map the user-defined types to a new model library, select the Create new model library (Create unmapped types in a new library) check box, type the name of a new model library, and then specify an existing project by selecting the Use Existing project check box, or type the name of a new project.
    • Alternatively, you can Skip mapping the user-defined types to the custom model library by clearing the Create new model library (Create unmapped types in a new library) option. then, the user-defined types are bundled under RoseUserDefinedTypes package as per the existing behavior.
  3. To advance to the next page of the wizard, click Next.
What to do next
Now you can specify preferences that determine how diagram elements that are displayed when you import a Rational Rose model.
