A Java field is mapped directly to the UML Attribute with the stereotype «JavaField». This stereotype is optional and if a UML Class has no stereotype, Java CE treats it as a Java field. If no appropriate property is found in UML, field modifiers are mapped into the UML Property properties or to the Java language properties.
Note that Java field type modifiers are mapped to the specific property Type Modifier, but not to the UML Multiplicity.
