Rule Builder > Business Object Models > Working With the BOM Graphical Editor > Creating Classes

You can create new virtual BOM classes in the BOM Graphical Editor. You will need to later translate these classes and their members into execution classes via the translation property.

To create a new class:

The new class is added in the package that the class diagram is contained in, and appears automatically in the BOM Explorer and the BOM Graphical Editor.

To edit your new class, you can do either of the following:

The Class Editor dialog box opens, allowing you to add and edit attributes, methods, and arguments to your classes. Note that methods are accessed from the Operations tab.
Note
A BOM class created using the Add Class menu entry does not extend the <java.lang.Object>. To extend it, use the BOM Graphical Editor and create a generalization link between the <java.lang.Object> and the new class.
