Specifying that a class implements an interface

In UML modeling, you can illustrate that a class supports, or relies on, the behavior that is defined in an interface.

A diagram must be open in the Modeling perspective and it must contain at least one class and one interface.
To specify that a class implements an interface:
  1. In the Palette, in the Class Diagram Drawer, click Implements.
  2. In the diagram editor, click the class and drag the cursor to the interface.
  3. Optional: Type a name for the implementation relationship.
