Creating a Template

Templates can be created in the Shared category when they apply to all metaclasses. They can also be created at the metaclass level or for a given stereotype or criterion.

Note:

Previously, you would bind the use of a particular template to a stereotype using the template name <<stereotype>> syntax. Now, you create the template beneath the stereotype in the profile.

You can use the Browse tool to find all templates of the same name. To do so, open a template, position the cursor on a template name in-between % characters, and click Browse (or F12). This opens a Result window that displays all templates prefixed by their metaclass name. You can double-click a template in the result window to locate its definition in the resource editor.

Right-click a metaclass, a stereotype, or a criterion and select New > Template to create a template.
Enter a name in the Name box. We recommend that you do not use spaces in the name.
[optional] Enter a comment to explain the use of the template.
Enter the template body using GTL in the central box.
