Hi ,
I am in the process of developing sequence diagram in Rose.I have a problem 
representing the method invocation in a self method from the methods 
invocked on other class in the same sequence diagram.

Scenario :(Check the attachment, it might give a better picture of my 
problem)
1)ObjectA calls getData() on ObjectB.
2)getData() method in class B does the following things.
2.1)calls it's own method(self) called validate() which in turn communicates 
with other objects for it's execution.
2.2)This method itself for it's completion communicates with other objects.

My question is how do you represent/distingush 2.1 and 2.2 in the sequence 
diagram. Do you have a seperate sequence diagram for 2.1(validate() method) 
and have a note when you are representing sequence diagram for getData().

Is there any standard for this kind of representation.
I am not sure If I represented my problem correctly.
Let me know if anything is ambiguios.

Thanks.
Gopi
