Multiplicity and how it is shown on class diagram

[pwillemann]

I'm a little frustrated and the documentation I am reading on this isn't helping me solve my problem.

Here is what I want to do and what I have been unable to do.  I am trying to generate Java code for the below scenario.

I want to have Class A contain a list of Class B.  

I expected to see something like this in the code for Class A

List<ClassB> itemList = new ArrayList<ClassB>  

I have gone to Tools, Options, Collection Classes and set by Default Collection Class to List, but this doesn't seem to help.

I haven't even been able to get the UML diagram to show as I would expect.

Can anyone get me started in the right direction.  Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
Phil

Try this

Code: [Select]


                     b
[classA] ------------> [classB]
                     0..*
[/font]

Then from the Association Properties set the target end (classB) multiplicity to "0..*" and the Member Type to List<classB>

I expected a dropdown for List - Are you telling me I have to type it into the field?   I would not expect to have to do that.  Nevertheless my code does not generate correctly.

Thanks
