Chapter 4 Extending your Models with Profiles
The following properties can be set for extended collections:
| Property | Description |
|---|---|
| Name | Specifies the name of the extended collection. |
| Comment | Describes the extended collection. |
| Inverse Name | [extended collection only] Specifies the name to appear in the Dependencies tab of the target metaclass. If you do not enter a value, an inverse name is automatically generated. |
| Target Type | Specifies the metaclass whose instances will appear in the collection. For extended collections, the list displays only metaclasses that can be directly instantiated in the current model or package, such as classes or tables, and not sub-objects such as class attributes or table columns. Click the Select a Metaclass tool to the right of this field to choose a metaclass from another type of model.
For extended compositions, only the ExtendedSubObject is available. |
| Target Stereotype | [required for extended compositions] Specifies a stereotype to filter the target type. You can select an existing stereotype from the list or enter a new one. |
When you open a model containing extended collections or compositions and associate it with a resource file that does not support them, the collections are still visible in the different property sheets in order to let you delete objects in the collections no longer supported.
