Hi,

I've designed my own model to define the states of an activity to be used in Web Application development.

In the model, I have:

  • Actor SwimLane: defines each actor's role in the activity
  • Manual State Element: defines the manual working state for each Actor (ie: getting the request signed form from customer)
  • Application State: defines the functional state in my application which is presented as web from (ie: fill the register form in RegisterCustomer.aspx)
  • Element connectors
  • Class SwimLane: this is the area which I can define my classes and connect each PageState to these classes to show the relation
  • Class Element: defines the domain objects in my application
  • Other Activity Diagram Elements (ie: Join, Fork,...)

When I create and define a Activity, I should define all the classes in my diagram. I do this by copy/paste between Activity Diagrams. Also, I'm using Entity Framework.

Here is my question: Is there any solution to use Entity Framework generaed model's classes or VS class diagram in my own diagram?

Thanks
