You can add enumeration literals to an enumeration in your model to represent discrete values for the enumeration. Software applications can copy and store enumeration literals and pass them as arguments in calls to operations.
Every enumeration literal in an enumeration must have a unique name that describes the value that it represents.
The diagram editor displays enumeration literals in class diagrams in the enumeration shape for which they are defined. The Project Explorer view displays enumeration literals under the enumeration for which they are defined. The following table illustrates these two notations.
