JDT Preference

eUML2 Modeler is tightly integrated in JDT. Therefore, JDT Java code generation options are used directly by two components in eUML2 Modeler:

• Reverse engineering
• Code generation

Reverse engineering

See the detail example in Getter/Setter method recognition in UML Model Reverse Engineering

Java Code generation

eUML2 Modeler uses this option to generate Java code for attributes. When you create an attribute via diagram, eUML2 Modeler code generator will concatenate the first prefix/suffix in this option to produce the Java attribute name. Using our previous example, if we add a new attribute String name:

we will get a Java attribute fName instead.

 /**
 * @uml.dependency   supplier="demo.Company"
 */
public class Employee {

	/**
	 * @uml.property  name="name"
	 */
	private String fName = "";
	
	/**
	 * Getter of the property <tt>name</tt>
	 * @return  Returns the fName.
	 * @uml.property  name="name"
	 */
	public String getName() {
		return fName;
	}

	/**
	 * Setter of the property <tt>name</tt>
	 * @param name  The fName to set.
	 * @uml.property  name="name"
	 */
	public void setName(String name) {
		fName = name;
	}
	
	/**
	 * @uml.property  name="company"
	 * @uml.associationEnd  inverse="employee:demo.Company"
	 */
	private Company fCompany;

	/**
	 * Getter of the property <tt>company</tt>
	 * @return  Returns the fCompany.
	 * @uml.property  name="company"
	 */
	public Company getCompany() {
		return fCompany;
	}

	/**
	 * Setter of the property <tt>company</tt>
	 * @param company  The fCompany to set.
	 * @uml.property  name="company"
	 */
	public void setCompany(Company company) {
		fCompany = company;
	}
}
