Objects: RTF doc problem
« on: September 07, 2005, 06:09:48 am »
I use quite some objects to demonstrate object flow in activity diagrams. Obviously, I'm not naming those objects, but just assign a classifier (a class) and select a state defined on that class to show the effect of activities on the object.

Somehow, in RTF it is totally impossible to list to what class an object belongs. I can merge state and object name at best, so some distinction shows up in the report (the state, that is, as I leave objecnames blank).
I wanna avoid overkill like aDocument:Document, just because RTF base classes and classifier do not return anything usefull.

Has anyone an idea how to report the class of an object in RTF?

Thx!

Tom, Element.Classifier lists the class of an object and is empty for all other elements of an activity diagram.
E.g.: {Element.Name} ({Element.Type}) {Element.Classifier}
