Values of attributes in instance specification
« on: September 24, 2009, 06:49:12 am »
As per IBM's implementation, instance specification notation (and as such element in the model) has slots for all features of its classifier, including inherited features and attributes can be assigned values.

In EA, I do not see features in instance specifications - not in diagrams nor in the Hierarchy pane. So my guess features are either not supported in instance specifications.. or I am missing something.

Do a search for runstate.  You should be able to find it.

Aha.. I was looking for something related to compartments.. :-)

For those who will stumble over the same:
"<right click on Instance Specification>|Advanced|Set Run State" allows to assign values to attributes defined in the Classifier of the Instance Specification.

Thank you, Simon!
