The profile diagram is one of the 14 types of diagram in the Unified Modeling Language (UML), a modeling language for software and other systems. It is used in the metamodel level to display so-called stereotypes with classes, which are then given the name <<stereotype>>or for profiles and packages <<profile>>. The extended relation (solid line with closed and filled arrows) indicates which metamodel element extends a given stereotype.
history
The profile diagram was not intended in UML1. It was only added to the diagrams with UML2 to illustrate the elementary use of profiles. Before that, others such as B. Class diagrams can be used.
