Hi,
I'm new to Rose and UML. I've defined the use cases and I've just started the sequence diagrams. Class1 has a relationship with other instances of the class1 i.e. instance1:classtype is related to instance2:class1 where 21 of instance1 is equivalent to 1 of instance 2. (Does that make sense?) I want the front end or form to create a new instance of class1 and then relate that instance to other instances of class1. I've got a form, list class1 and class1 objects in my sequence diagram. I've attempted to describe the sequence diagram below. I've listed my questions below this description. (i) The system gets the names of existing class1 objects and displays them in the form. I have an arrow from the Form to the List Class1 object called get list of class1 object names i.e. the list class 1 names is an operation held in the List Class1 object. (ii) The user selects the class1 objects that are related to this new object. I have an arrow from the user to the form called select class1. I then have an arrow from the Form going in on itself called highlight selected class1. (iii) The user enters a name for the new instance of class1. I have an arrow from the user to the form called enter name. (iv) The system checks if this name allready exists. I have an arrow from Form to List Class1 called check for duplicates i.e. this operation lies with the List Class 1 object. (v) The system creates a new instance of class1. I have an arrow from the List Class1 object to the Class1 obejct called createClass1() i.e. the operation is in the Class1 object. (vi) The system asks the user to enter the relationship of this new class with the existing classes selected in (ii). The relationship must be in the form of an interger number. This is where I'm stuck, should i create a tempory list that stores the class1 that were selected in (ii). If I do, then where should this create operation reside in? Should it reside in a new instance of List Class1 which calls the add operation to add the selected class1 instances? If I do this, then should I have an seperate check integer operation held in the class1 object or in the form or in another class that is called the relationship class i.e. the relationship between the instances of the class1's? I hope u can help Thanks Manzoor _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
