<![CDATA[Latest posts for the topic "How do you model methods with variable number of arguments in UML?"]]> http://forums.visual-paradigm.com/posts/9.html JForum - http://www.jforum.net How do you model methods with variable number of arguments in UML? If not how could I model that in UML (some examples)?

Let's say I have class:

FamilyTree that has a method Find that could look like this:

Find(ITreeMemberCriterion c1) or
Find(ITreeMemberCriterion c1, ITreeMemberCriterion c2) or
FindITreeMemberCriterion c1, ITreeMemberCriterion c2, ITreeMemberCriterion c3)
......

I was thinking of putting a List ADT as a parameter for the method but I don't know how correct would that be according to the specifications of UML 2.0 taking into consideration that the I want the implementation to be done using variable number of arguments. I'm a kind of a UML noob and I'm guessing by now that the a ClassDiagram class element isn't that much related to the physical implementation of it?
