May 18, 2016 · Here's a picture of a slightly different example in ArgoUML: Typically you model the enum itself as a class with the enum stereotype. I am modeling a class diagram. An attribute of a class is an enumeration. How do I model this? Normally you do something like this: - name : string But how does one do this with an enum?

Feb 1, 2024 · What is Enumeration in UML Class Diagram? A UML enumeration represents a complete list of all values that a given type may acquire. An enumeration is used as a type of attribute, operation, and operation parameters. Enums may be used in a flag mode to support bitwise combinations of particular values.

Using attributes makes for a simpler diagram, and in some tools is required in order for the attribute to be visible in the tree view of the model. Using directed associations means you must include the target type (the enum) in the diagram, which means you can see the literals.

Nov 25, 2020 · In UML ROAD, CAR and NOTHING are EnumerationLiteral and in a class diagram they are shown in the compartment literals showing their name, and nothing more of them. An enumeration being a Datatype may have property, however the attribute code from your Java cannot be supported by a property as your did because it …

Jan 3, 2025 · Class diagrams shows the static structure of a software system, showcasing classes, attributes, methods, and relationships. They help visualize and organize the components of the system, serving as a blueprint for implementation.

The class diagram is the main building block of object-oriented modeling. It is used for general conceptual modeling of the structure of the application, and for detailed modeling to translate the models into programming code. Class diagrams can also be used for data modeling.

In UML models, enumerations are model elements in class diagrams that represent user-defined data types. Enumerations contain sets of named identifiers that represent the values of the enumeration. These values are called enumeration literals.

Enums An enum (short for enumeration), is a special "class" that represents a group of constants (unchangeable variables, like final variables). To create an enum, use the enum keyword (instead of class or interface), and separate the constants with a comma.

You can use domain modeling class diagrams to create Java™ enumeration types to visually develop applications. You must have a domain modeling class diagram open. In the Palette, click Enum and click an empty space in the diagram editor where you want to place the enum type.

Apr 12, 2016 · I took what you wrote to mean "UML allows enums to appear as stereotyped classes". Under the indistinguishable surface notation, UML does not allow you to create an enumeration as a stereotyped class on a diagram.
