Enterprise Architect UML Profiles
Filed under Common
A profile is a collection of different extensions, like Stereotypes and Tagged values that are applied to Elements, Attributes, Methods, Links, Link Ends to describe and facilitate some particular modelling problem.
To load and work with different profiles, Enterprise Architect uses a generic UML Profile mechanism. UML Profiles for EA are specified in XML files, which may be imported into EA in the resource page of the project browser. Now you can drag and drop profile elements and EA attaches the stereotypes, tagged values and default values, notes and even metafiles to the new element.
