Redefining Parent Ports

A classifier that is connected to a parent by way of a generalization can redefine the ports of the parent.

Steps To redefine the ports of a parent classifier:

  1. Open the property sheet of a class, interface, or component, and click the Ports tab.
  2. Click the Redefine button at the bottom of the tab to open the Parent Ports window, which will display a list of ports belonging to the parent classifier.


  1. Select a port and then click Redefine to have it redefined by the child classifier.
  2. Click Close to return to the child's property sheet. The redefined port will now appear in the list on the Ports tab.
