Sequence Interaction Diagram Empty Parameter List

Hello all:

I can’t seem to get the parameter list to show when I use a call message type between two lifelines. I setup the message to point to an operation of the ending lifeline’s class type, however, it shows up without parameters, i.e. send() instead of send(parameters). Even when I double-click on the item as if to edit the listing shows the correct signature with parameters and return type but when selected they disappear and only the empty signature remains.

Am I missing something?

Thanks,

John

Hi John,

Thanks for your post. You need to create Arguments for the call message in order to show the operation parameters on the message. For more details, please watch the following flash movie:

Hope this helps. If there is any further inquiry, please do not hesitate to contact me.
