Create PersonVO using ArgoUML

This page provides directions to create the PersonVO using ArgoUML. The model is shown below for your reference.

1. In the TimeTracker model create a package called vo under org.andromda.timetracker. We will create our value objects in this package.
2. Select the vo package in the Explorer pane and click the Class Diagram icon in the Diagrams toolbar to create a new diagram in this package.
3. From the Explorer pane on the left, drag the Person class on to the diagram. Warning: It is important to bring in the existing Person class from the domain package into this diagram. DO NOT create a new Person class in this diagram. Doing so will create a new class in the vo package - this is not our intention. All we need is a reference to the existing Person class in the domain package.
4. Add a new class to the diagram and name it PersonVO.
5. Add the stereotype called ValueObject to the PersonVO class.
6. Add four attributes to PersonVO as shown above.
7. Select the Dependency tool (dashed line with open arrowhead) from the toolbar. Now left-click on thePerson class, drag to the PersonVO class and release the mouse button. A dependency relationship is added between the two classes.
8. Add a new class to the diagram and name it PersonVO[].
9. Make sure your class diagram matches the one shown above.
10. Save the model by selecting File > Save Project.

We are now ready to generate code for the PersonVO value object. Please go back to the main tutorial page and continue from where you left off.
