SysML allocated note
« on: June 06, 2016, 08:29:39 pm »
Hi,
Looking at SysML allocation features, I'm trying to use the "allocated" stereotyped note as described in EA help here: http://www.sparxsystems.com.au/enterprise_architect_user_guide/12.1/systems_engineering/sysml_model_elements.html

I can create an "allocate" stereotyped dependency between elements, and get the allocatedto/from compartment displayed on a block as per the help page.

However when I create the Allocated note and associate with an allocated dependency, nothing shows up. I'd expect it allocatedFrom and allocatedTo tagged values to be populated accordingly and shown on the diagram.
I also tried to associate it with 2 elements e.g. an Activity and a Block.

Any hint on using this note?

Found the solution on this one by creating a stereotyped note (allocated or satisfies), followed by a right click on the link > "link this note to an Element Feature" > Feature Type = allocated from or satisfies. It only works with SysML Blocks.

I cannot work out how to display the following allocation information in diagram notes (is it supported or would it require an enhancement in the SysML MDG?) :
- about an action or activity (e.g. allocated to a block)
- about an action pin (e.g. allocated to a block port)
- a part on an IBD (e.g. allocated from an action)
- a block or part port (e.g. allocated from an action pin)

Is there a way to create an allocation dependency between connectors e.g. an object flow between action pins and an association between SysML block ports? And to display the allocation information in a diagram note?

I'm currently building a training course about SysML with EA which involves finding the equivalent in EA for features that are available with other SysML tools.

I have not used that feature yet, but I am interested in your investigation results.
SysML in EA is sometimes mystic. ::)
