Override Parent Operations

You can configure the system to display this dialog each time you add a Generalization or Realization connector between Classes, and review their possible operations/interfaces to override/implement.

Access     Element | Structure | Overrides and Implementations   (Ctrl+Shift+O)

On the dialog, you simply:

·Select the checkbox against each operation or interface to automatically override (or click on the Select All button) and click on the OK button; Enterprise Architect generates the equivalent function definitions in your child Class

 

To display the dialog automatically, select Tools | Options | Links and select the checkbox for Show Override Operation dialog on new connector.
