how about separate packages for similarly grouped Use Cases... and then you can either place Actors in the top level of the use case view, or in packages of similarly grouped Actors Example: Top Level Use Case View (Package SystemMaintenanceUseCases) - place one or more use case diagrams here (Package SomeOtherUseCases) - place one or more use case diagrams here (Package UserActors) - place one or more Actors here (Package SomeOtherActors) - place one or more Actors here ------------------------------------------------- Tony Picarello Engineer Science Applications International Corp.

I am making use cases for a system with many different kinds of Actors, that have both similar options and very different ones. To put this all in one Use Case-diagram makes it rather complex. So I would like to divide this in different packages. Im just wondering which method would work best for this. Possible options: - Make packages of all options/use cases... and then put all Actors in the diagram with the Use cases they have in common ... example: (Package Use Case 1) Actor1 \ Actor2 - Use Case 1 Actor3 / (Package Use Case 2) Actor1 \ Actor2 - Use Case 2 Actor3 / - or make Actor-based packages, and make a different Diagram for every option they have. thus using the same use case in different diagrams. example: (Package Actor 1) Actor1 - Use Case 1 Actor1 - Use Case 2 Actor1 - Use Case 3 (Package Actor 2) Actor2 - Use Case 1 Actor2 - Use Case 2 Actor2 - Use Case 3 Regards, Rick ************************************************************************ * Rose Forum is a public venue for ideas and discussions. * For technical support, visit http://www.rational.com/support * * Admin.Subscription Requests: [EMAIL PROTECTED] * Archive of messages: http://www.rational.com/products/rose/usergroups/rose_forum.jtmpl * Other Requests: [EMAIL PROTECTED] * * To unsubscribe from the list, please send email * * To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] * Subject:<BLANK> * Body: unsubscribe rose_forum * ************************************************************************* ************************************************************************ * Rose Forum is a public venue for ideas and discussions. * For technical support, visit http://www.rational.com/support * * Admin.Subscription Requests: [EMAIL PROTECTED] * Archive of messages: http://www.rational.com/products/rose/usergroups/rose_forum.jtmpl * Other Requests: [EMAIL PROTECTED] * * To unsubscribe from the list, please send email * * To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] * Subject:<BLANK> * Body: unsubscribe rose_forum * *************************************************************************
