A Data Store Node keeps all tokens that enter it, copying them when they are chosen to be moved downstream. Incoming tokens containing a particular object replace any tokens in the object node that contains the particular object.
To create a Data Store Node
- Expand the Activity diagram palette, click the downward arrow button next to the Object Node icon and select Data Store Node from the shortcut menu.
- Click on the Activity diagram pane. The Data Store Node is created.
- (Optional) To specify the Data Store Node by changing its property values, right-click its symbol and open its Specification window.
