Patterns to apply

The sample patterns library will be imported into the current instance of the running product through a RAS import and will show up immediately in the Patterns Explorer view for use by the pattern applier. The design pattern library installed with the product contains real-world design patterns that also can be used to learn about the patterns features.
Time required: 3 minutes
To successfully work with this sample, you need to have the following tools and components installed:
Note: This sample might require some optionally installable components. If you encounter errors or cannot find user interface options when you run the sample, ensure that you installed the appropriate optional components.

The sample pattern library contains an appropriate selection of patterns to showcase the primary pattern authoring and patterns framework concepts. A few of the patterns also use less common parameter types to highlight the treatment of these types (such as enumerations and UML literals). Some sample patterns are included to highlight additional features that are available to pattern authors in the implementation of their patterns.

In addition, pattern authors can create a patterns library example project under the new example plug-in project (UML modeler plug-in examples section) to learn how to create patterns by examining the sample source. The patterns can then be modified and would subsequently show up in the Pattern Explorer view of another run-time instance of the product.
