How to create a new Data Type?

Hi,

I’m using CE of visual paradigm for evaluation purposes.

I didn’t found any way to add a custom data type (displaying with other data types such as long, short, int, …)

Am I missing something ?

Hi Anonymous,

The datatypes you suggested were already included in the tool. If you are going to create attribute with type specified, you can simply right-click on an attribute, select Open Specification from popup menu to show the specification dialog, and select the type from the Type drop-down menu. Several pre-defined types are provided.

You will want to apply your own class as a Type. If so, create the class in a class diagram, follow the steps mentioned above to select this class from the drop-down menu.

If there are any questions, please let me know.

Best Regards,
Jick
