Granville Miller continues his discussion of the UML with this examination of the role of conditional logic in sequence diagramming.
Tutorial Details:
You'll learn why you might choose to include or exclude conditions and loops from a diagram, what the two forms of sequence diagrams are, and how they are applied in the development cycle.
As I explained in my introductory column, sequence diagramming is used to depict the internal behavior of a system over time. Because system behavior is the result of objects sending messages to each other, sequence diagrams plot the course of those messages as they move from object to object. Ultimately, sequence diagrams are maps of interaction. In the previous installment, we created a fairly simple map, although we depicted numerous interactions. This time, we'll dig in a little deeper, with a look at the two forms of sequence diagrams specified by the UML. The two forms are generic and instance. Let's start by considering the proper application of each form.
