Modifying parameters, literals, and signals
in classifiers
You
can use parameters, literals, and signals in classifiers to specify the behaviors
and properties of model elements in diagrams.
Managing parameters in operations
In UML diagrams, you can
add and modify parameters that pass information into and out of operations.
Parameters can hold values and have a direction that you can use to
change the behavior of an operation.
Showing or hiding parameters
In UML diagrams, you can
show or hide parameters in operations according to the level of detail
that you want the classifiers in your diagram to display.
Sorting and filtering enumeration literals
In your UML model, you can
reduce the complexity, or increase the abstraction level, of your
diagrams by sorting and filtering the display of enumeration literals
in enumerations.
Adding signal receptions to classifiers
In your UML model, you can
add signal receptions to a classifier to indicate that the classifier
is ready to respond to a signal. The signal reception identifies the
signal and specifies how the receiving object should respond.
