Releasing a custom UML profile ensures that you cannot
make changes to a profile that adversely affect models that have
the released profile applied to them. After you release a profile,
you cannot delete or rename the stereotypes, stereotype attributes,
classes, enumerations, or metaclass extensions of a released profile.
You can only make changes that are compatible with the released
version of your profile.
Before you can release a custom UML profile, the
profile must be open in the
Model Explorer view.
Important: You should only release a profile when you
are ready to deploy it.
To release a custom UML profile:
- In the Model Explorer view,
right-click a profile; then click Release.
- In the Release Profile window, in
the Release Label field, type a name. The release information is displayed in the Properties view
on the General page.
- Click OK.
