JEAF and JEAF Generator provide a wide range of features in the area of code generation from UML models. On the pages of this section you will find information about very common stereotypes:

«JEAFDeprecated»

Deprecations are markers that indicate that a specific model element should not be used any longer. To do so, you just have to apply the stereotype «JEAFDeprecated» to the model element. This can be anything from a whole class or interface to an parameter of an operation.

«Transient»

Stereotype can be used to mark attributes or roles inside the UML model as transient. Attributes / association end with this stereotype will be marked with keyword transient also in the generated code. This is especially helpful in scenarios where objects will be serialized e.g. using JSON.

«Internal»

Stereotype can be used to mark attributes or roles as internal. This means that in the generated Java code they will be generated as any other properties but access methods will only have package visibility.
