Compose and Aggregate Toolbox items
« on: September 26, 2006, 09:49:21 pm »
The topic: Composition and Aggregation in Class Diagram?  (and WARNING: Aggregations vs Aggregate Associations) describe some of the issues related to the Compose and Aggregate items in the Toolbox.  The general user consensus appears to be that the Compose and Aggregate items should at least be configurable to create Associations type connectors rather than Aggregation type connectors.

Can this be done please?

It is starting to cause problems in a multi-person-distributed project.

My preference would be to do away with the Aggregation type connector, but others may differ.

Voting starts now...

Since association type connector is only observed in data model transformation, I vote for association type connector.
