Transforms in C++-to-UML transformations

To extend the C++-to-UML transformation, you must understand the transforms that it contains.
When you understand the structure of each transform, you can insert rules, extractors, or other transforms in the appropriate locations. The following tables provide more details about the transforms in the C++-to-UML transformation:
  • The identifier is used in ExtendTransform elements to specify the instance of the transform that rules are added to
  • The source, target container, and target provide important information for rules:
    • The source is the C++ object that the rule creates a new target for
    • The target container is the target that a parent transform generates
    • The target is the object that the transform rules generates
