Analysis Stereotypes
Enterprise Architect provides some built in stereotypes that you can assign to an element during analysis. The effect of each of these stereotypes is to display a different icon from the normal element icon, giving a visual key to the element's purpose. The main types of inbuilt icons for elements created using the stereotypes include:
| · | Boundary - for a system boundary (for example, a Login screen) |
| · | Control - to specify an element is a controller of some process (as in the Model-View-Controller pattern) |
| · | Entity - the element is a persistent or data element |
The elements created using these stereotypes are illustrated in this Robustness diagram. Also see the Business Modeling elements, used in Business Modeling and Business Interaction diagrams.
