Importing statechart diagrams

Chapter 9 Working with Object-Oriented Models

Importing statechart diagrams

The following table maps Rose objects to OOM objects in the following way:

In a Rose model...	Becomes in an OOM
State containing symbols in at least one statechart diagram	State
State containing symbols in at least one activity diagram and only if it is related to an Object	Object state (in an activity diagram)
State transition	Transition

In Rose, the activity and statechart diagrams are created in the Use Case View or in the Logical View:

At the root level
In an activity
In a state

A UML State Machine is automatically created: it contains statechart and also activity diagrams with their relevant objects. In PowerDesigner, statechart diagrams are created at the model level or in a composite state: the parent package or the model is considered the State Machine.
