Microsoft.VisualStudio.Uml.Extensions Namespace

  • Article

[This documentation is for preview only, and is subject to change in later releases. Blank topics are included as placeholders.]

This namespace defines additional methods for the UML types, allowing them to be created and more easily navigated. It also defines types for Modeling Project and Model Store.

Most of the classes in this namespace define extension methods to the classes in the assembly Microsoft.VisualStudio.Uml.Interfaces.dll. While the interfaces in that assembly provide a realization of the UML Specification, these extensions add methods and properties that help to construct a model and to navigate it more easily. Descriptions of the extension methods appear with the types that they extend.

This namespace also provides some additional types:

[T:Microsoft.VisualStudio.Uml.Extensions .IInsertionPoint]

An insertion point refers to a location on an interaction diagram.

[T:Microsoft.VisualStudio.Uml.Extensions .IModelingProject]

A modeling project is a Visual Studio project that contains a UML model.

[T:Microsoft.VisualStudio.Uml.Extensions .IModelStore]

A model store contains UML model elements. There is one for each loaded modeling project.

LoadMessages
