Everything you will need to build your own technology covering Shape Scripts, Tagged Value Types, Code Template Framework, Grammar Framework and more. |
Sometimes a modeling problem cannot be adequately expressed using the base UML model elements or, similarly, an area of work falls into a specialized domain that requires a tailored modeling approach and/or program language support. To meet such requirements, you can extend the capabilities of UML to develop new modeling constructs, using MDG Technologies to combine and deploy a wide range of extension mechanisms such as:
| · | UML Profiles |
| · | Stereotypes |
| · | Shape Scripts |
| · | Tagged Values |
| · | Constraints |
| · | Patterns |
| · | Customized Code and Transformation Templates, and |
| · | Grammars |
Using the MDG Technology Creation Wizard, you can quickly and easily integrate the extensions into a technology and rapidly tailor UML and Enterprise Architect to address a particular modeling domain not explicitly covered in the original UML specification, but using extension mechanisms that are still part of the Specification.
