Constraint Types
In an element Properties definition, each constraint on the element is defined by type in the Constraint field. You can select the appropriate value from a drop-down list, which initially contains the system values:
• | Invariant |
• | Post-condition |
• | Pre-condition |
• | Process and |
• | OCL |
You can add to or replace any of these values with your own custom values.
