I am using Enterprise Architect to make design for a source code in C++.

I need to draw diagrams for some important structures and unions , i am confused here.

For structs, AFAIR yes a stereotyped class is the answer.  There is some info somewhere in the help on this but IBD if I remember where.  Also search here (using the usual blah blah).

For unions, don know - never used em.

As always, a good check is to create some sample elements and reverse engineer them into EA.

(...and then forward engineer them back to to confirm you get the same result  )

It's also a good idea to look at the manual.

You'll find instructions on how to model any C++ construct handled by EA at http://www.sparxsystems.com.au/EAUserGuide/index.html?cpp_conventions.htm.

A struct is just like a class, all you have to do is make its stereo type <<struct>>.
