If you go to enterprise architect from sparx systems, it has the option to define basic flows and exceptional flows.
A use case diagram at all without all that info is very much useless, at least thats the way I have worked in the last 9 years, in the last 3 companies, all of them use use cases to define flows. I am thinking very seriusly to implement a use case work item with all that info, it would be better than the diagram, and maybe the diagram can be linked to the work item However its very strange, because in a screenshot somewhere I saw that the architecture explorer would allow preconditions, postconditions, etc. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Use_case Thanks From: Guger, Larry Sent: Thursday, May 21, 2009 9:28 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: Use Cases, I'm assuming you are talking about the use case diagram with TeamArch. The diagram doesn't support that. You would need to add that information into a textual version of the use case. My suggestion would be to create a text format of the use case (ala Alistair Cockburn) and add an artifact element to the diagram that links to the document. Use cases usually don't indicate flow, I would suggest going to an activity or sequence diagram for that.
