To create a software product line, identify the IBM® Rational® Rhapsody® components
that are the variation points for the system. A variation point is
a point of choice on some Rational Rhapsody elements
that imply products might differ with respect to those elements.
Procedure
- In a high-level object model diagram, create
a class or object for the variable component.
- In the Features window for each variable
component, select VariationPoint as the Stereotype.
In this example, the jet and heater are the variation points for the
dishwasher.
