Released on: December 4, 2017

 

In this release, new APIs have been added. Additionally, the UML metamodel and the profile have been updated.

 




Open API Changes

Open API is available for:

  • Creating text with element references, setting, and getting text from elements by calling the com.nomagic.magicdraw.elementreferenceintext.ElementPropertyRichTextManager class. Learn more >>
  • Adorning an element in a diagram by using the com.nomagic.magicdraw.annotation.Annotation object. Learn more >>
  • Controlling when the validation rule must be executed, as well as what to validate and how it must be validated by implementing the com.nomagic.magicdraw.validation.ValidationRule interfaceLearn more >>
  • A validation rule to check and annotate individual presentation of elements (symbols) in diagrams by calling the extendingcom.nomagic.magicdraw.validation.DiagramValidator class. Learn more >>
  • Refactoring RepresentationTextCreator. As the com.nomagic.magicdraw.uml.RepresentationTextCreator.class is no longer compatible with earlier versions of a modeling tool, all plugins using methods or fields of RepresentationTextCreator and were compiled with a MagicDraw API version earlier than 19.0 beta should be recompiled before using the plugins with MagicDraw 19.0 beta or later. 
Meta Model Changes
  • UML 2.5.1 is now supported.
Profile Changes
  • The SysML profile is updated due to changes in SysML 1.5:
    • Added new concept of Abstract Requirement, allowing you to extend the Requirement concept and base it on any kind of model element. Learn more >>
  • Added the UAF profile, as the UAF framework is supported now. It implements the latest OMG standard version and contains complete support of all domains and views, including:
    • New Strategic, Personnel, Standards, Project, Security diagrams, tables, and matrices.
    • New Traceability diagrams.
    • New Parametric diagrams (DoDAF, MODAF, NAF, and NAF 4 also have them).

  • Updated the BPMN2 profile to support UML for BPMN Processes.
