Thanks. I see what is happening...sort of. I'm using 2000e.
The reverse engineering converts these variables to associations, not
attributes. This is perhaps my newness to serious UML, but it seems to me
that a class diagram should reflect the variables used to establish
associations. For example, if class A contains a Vector, that is a
collection of references to class B, it is useful to see the Vector in the
diagram as an attribute of class A. However, the reverse engineering of
this code does not produce that result.
Is there a way to manually convert the associations to attributes in Rose?
When I double click on these, the dialogue box is a "Field Specification".
However, when I view the class standard specification dialogue, these
"fields" are only present under the "Relations" tab.
Thanks again.

Hi Neil
Which version of Rose are you using?
What you probably have is a composition or aggregation relationships to the
non-primitive types. Are the non-primitive classes in your model?
An attribute in the UML definition is essentially a non-object, it has no
behaviour or structure - so any Java class will be modelled as a class, with
the composition or aggregation.

anthony
