Package properties

Packages have properties displayed on property sheets. All packages share the following common 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 A comment is an optional label that describes a package and provides more information than the name
Stereotype Sub-classification used to extend the semantics of an object without changing its structure; it can be predefined or user-defined
Default diagram You can select from the dropdown listbox the diagram to display by default when you open the package
Use parent namespace Option that defines the package as being the area in which the name of an object must be unique in order to be used.
