Chapter 3 Building Physical Diagrams
You can double-click any view reference symbol in a diagram to display its properties:
| Property | Description |
|---|---|
| Name | The name of the item which should be clear and meaningful, and should convey the item's purpose to non-technical users |
| Code | The technical name of the item used for generating code or scripts, which may be abbreviated, and should not generally include spaces |
| Comment | Descriptive label for the view reference |
| Stereotype | Sub-classification used to extend the semantics of an object without changing its structure; it can be predefined or user-defined |
| Parent | Parent table or view of the view reference |
| Parent role | Role of the parent table or view in the view reference. The text appears in the diagram, near the parent table or view |
| Child | Child table or view of the view reference |
| Child role | Role of the child table or view in the view reference. The text appears in the diagram, near the child table or view |
A view reference also includes joins, that are links between parent columns and child columns.
