Would it be a sound assumption that the user also selects the seat class togheter with the other departure/destination data.

(I don't know if I can or cannot change use case input data for the assignment)

TIA,
Gabriel

Hi,

Finally I was able to add the [guard] to the loop Combined Fragment, now the problem is that the guard is shown behind some object's activation line.

Selecting the loop Combined fragment and pressing the "Bring to Front" toolbar button doesn't work.

Any ideas?

TIA,
Gabriel

Hi,

Have the same problem with StarUML.

Did anyone solved this problem?
I'm starting to think that changing to UML 1.x is better for this tool than using UML 2.0 artifacts.

TIA,
Gabriel

Hi,

I want to include a LOOP combined fragment to a sequence diagram, but I can't make the loop condition (something like [for all flights]) appears to the right of the little left top corner "loop" tag. It just appear inside of the tag, which AFAIK is not UML compliant.

Any ideas?

TIA,
Gabriel

You could have a task that fires at regular time intervals to process all pending work. The work producer saves it into a shared repository (a database for example)

Hi Riyad.

Two questions:

1) How exactly is MyEclipse different from Eclipse Ganymede?
2) Reading from MyEclipse web site, I see that it doesn't provide any wizard/graphical support for Struts 2 development. Is there any plans so far to support it?

TIA

Hi,

Could you compare breafly Seam vs Struts 2?

Gabriel

I'm alleviated I'm not the only one doing this.

But, the question is: did anyone passed the exam doing it this way?

Hi,

Regarding the sequence diagrams in the assignment, I'm using a Struts 2-like web framework but I feel that showing all Action classes involved in accomplish one use case are too much, because the diagram would be too cluttered with something that really doesn't provide any useful architectural information to the sequence diagram.

I just wanted to check if I may just add a generic "client" lifetime to the sequence, sending events to business-layer components, and returning the "result" of this processing to it.

(I Hope I don't brake any rules asking this question.)

Gabriel

Hi,

I have a doubt regarding the Pay for itinerary UC

The Pay for Itinerary UC is called from the Prepare Itinerary UC only if I understood it correctly. This means that it acts on the current just prepared (priced and confirmed) itinerary.

I wonder why the credit card payment flow acts on this itinerary, but choosing to pay with award miles involves selecting an existing itinerary with their price? Isn't it the same current itinerary that we are about to pay?

Also the "Customer not logged in" returns a list of itineraries.

Other inconsistency:

In the alternative flow "Customer Selects Award Travel", one of the steps is "Customer selects award travel", which is unnecessary since we *already found the condition* that the customer selected to pay with Award Travel (that's why we entered this alternate flow).
How about this?

Regards,
Gabriel

Congratulations!

I see that you got perfect score on the sequence diagrams. Can you share with us your experience doing them?

Gabriel

Hi,

I'm doing Part 2 too.

This "update the Frequent Flier Mileage System" requirement is not mentioned anywhere in the assignment, but I think it implicit. After all, it is common that buying flight tickets would increase your miles. However, there are other sources of increasing miles, for example, with some credit card purchases. I would suspect that the Mileage system already is prepared to support different update sources and would need to be upgraded to support one more system.

Hi,

I've been reading that I could actually schedule for part 3 on June 30, and then re-schedule to allow time to upload the part 2.

However, I don't know if part 2 has an upload time limit expiration of June 30, even if I can re-schedule the part 3.

Someone is positivelly sure that I could do this?

I could not afford right now buying other part 3 exam (or even IF I can BUY IT...I remember hearing that SCEA 2 exams sells were discontiued by February 28)

Thanks in advance,
Gabriel

Hi,

I'm preparing for Part II (and III) of the old SCEA certification.

I bought both vouchers already time ago but now they are both about to expire (June 30), and I'm still doing part II.

What are my options?
