Linkable domains for requirements
You can create associations between requirements and domain elements
depending on the available linkable domains (or simply domains).
A linkable domain refers to a feature or application within the
workspace that represents closely related domain elements, such as a file
or project within the Resource domain.
For example, the UML is one linkable domain. Within the UML linkable domain,
there are many kinds of elements, such as use cases, models, classes, components,
and so on. Typically, you refer to these domain elements as model elements;
however, they are called domain elements because you can create
associations between domain elements and requirements.
- Resource linkable domain
You can create a link between a requirement in the Requirements
Explorer view and an Eclipse resource object, such as a project,
folder, or file in the Navigator view.
- UML modeling linkable domain
You can create a link between a requirement in the Requirement
Explorer view and a UML model element (also referred to as a domain
element) in the Model Explorer view.
- Java linkable domain
You can create a link between a requirement in the Requirements
Explorer view and a Java™ domain element in the Package
Explorer view.
- Domain elements
A domain element is any non requirement workspace
object that can be connected to a requirement using a link.
