Hi Vivek,
C++ is NOT PURE oo language and hence you have some thing called "Main"
function. This function is out side all classes and beyond OO paradigm.
Comming to your question :
"
i am doing Sequence diagrams for a module to be developed in C++. In
case of C++, the first function to be called is main(). In my Sequence
Diagram, do i show main()?? if yes, then which class does it belong??
"
In sequence diagrams you have to show "objects" (instances of classes) and
since functionality encapsulated in main does not belong to any class so you
can not have objects with these functionalities. So the solution I would
recommend is create a new class with these functionalities and an object of
this class should be used in the sequence diagram.
Hope this helps.

Subject: (ROSE) Inclusion of main() in Sequence Diagrams(newbee)
Hello all,
i am doing Sequence diagrams for a module to be developed in C++. In
case of C++, the first function to be called is main(). In my Sequence
Diagram, do i show main()?? if yes, then which class does it belong??
say i have a class InputReader which reads the input from the user.It
is an boundry class and the first class to be called.
in this case, where do i include main() in the seq. diagram and how do
i call a function in InputReader ??
Hope the problem is clear.
Regards,
Vivek
