Generating a profile tooling model

You can generate a profile tooling model so that you have a graphical way to view and edit your profile tooling. Although you can view all the property types, element types, and so on in the Project Explorer view, a UML model that represents your profile tooling provides an alternative way to view your profile tooling model contents.

Before you begin

Note: Before you generate a profile tooling model using the steps below, the profile must have been created inside the UML Profile Tooling Plug-in Project wizard. This command is not available on profiles that reside in a modeling project, for example.

About this task

To generate a profile tooling model:
Tip: If you do not see the UML Generate Profile Tooling Model command, you must open the UML Profile Tooling Plug-in Project wizard, create a new profile tooling project, and specify the profile in question. If you still do not see the UML Generate Profile Tooling Model command, make sure you are in the Modeling perspective.

What to do next

Now that you have your tooling model, you can use it to customize how your tooling looks.
