RE: (ROSE) Why only one stereotype per element

[Norris, Davyd]

A previous post extracted the relevant section in UML and you UML only allows one stereotype at this time. There is a proposal in the pipe to change this in a future version of UML.   Regards, Dave. -- Davyd Norris - Consultant Regional Services Organisation (Asia Pacific) Rational Software Sydney, Australia.

If you want to do so, you can have a look at the REI section of the Rose help.   Regards, Francois. ----- Original Message ----- From: Alex Goeman To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, April 09, 2001 10:15 Subject: (ROSE) Why only one stereotype per element Why can there be only one stereotype assigned to a model element ? Is this a design restriction from the rational software ? I though that multiple stereotypes were possible using UML so what is the motivation for restricting it.     Greetings, Alex Goeman
