How to specify multiplicity of parameter?
« on: July 30, 2010, 02:59:07 pm »
According to UML 2.1.2 (formal/2007-11-02, ch. 7.3.41) a Parameter is a special MultiplicityElement and thus inter has alias a lower and an upper value.

How can I set these values for a parameter of an Operation in EA?

Thanks in advance,
Torsten

With the button named "Multiplicity" on the parameter dialog :-?

Guess I have to upgrade to a new version of EA. In Version 7.5 (Build 854) there is no such button.

Cheers,
Torsten

Hello Torsten,

Correct.  This functionality was added in EA 8.0.  From the release notes for build 855...

Parameters can now have multiplicity information specified.
