Property |
Description |
|---|---|
Name/Code/Comment |
Identify the object. The name should clearly convey the object's purpose to non-technical users, while the code, which is used for generating code or scripts, may be abbreviated, and should not normally include spaces. You can optionally add a comment to provide more detailed information about the object. By default the code is generated from the name by applying the naming conventions specified in the model options. To decouple name-code synchronization, click to release the = button to the right of the Code field. |
Stereotype |
Extends the semantics of the object. You can enter a stereotype directly in this field, or add stereotypes to the list by specifying them in an extension file. |
Type |
Specifies the defining group that includes the abstract data type. |
|
Owner |
Specifies the name of abstract data type owner. You choose an owner from a list of users. |
Authorization |
[objects] Invoker Right attribute used for DDL generation. |
Supertype |
[objects] Parent abstract data type from which the current abstract data type can inherit the procedures. |
Final/Abstract |
