Using the object language editor
You use the object language editor to consult or modify parameters that
appear in categories or sub-categories of an Object-Oriented Model.
The object language editor is made up of a number of categories, sub-
categories, that contain parameters. When you select a category or a
parameter, its comment and values are displayed in fields in the right-hand
side of the of the dialog box. You define object language editor parameters
by modifying the values contained in these fields.
Each category and sub-category in the object language editor has the
following properties:
Property Description
Name Name of category or sub-category
Comment Description of selected category or sub-category
Each field in the object language editor has the following properties:
Property Description
Name Field name
Comment Description of selected field
Value Field value
The values that you define as parameters are used to define object
stereotypes, data types, scripts, and constants.
You can add new values, modify or delete existing ones. Any changes you
make to parameters in the object language editor apply to all new objects that
you create in existing or new models.
