When an argument is added to a Message Reply which has its signature set to e.g. an operation 'foo' with two owned parameters 'ingoing' and 'result' of which latter one it's direction is set to 'return', the value is incorrectly displayed at the 'ingoing' parameter. So the result is: foo( int: ingoing = 0 ): int while expected: foo( int: ingoing ): int = 0 When adding the argument to the Message Reply (choosing e.g. LiteralInteger) the dialog box is already filled in with the next appropriate suggestion, in this case correctly filled in with 'result'. Nevertheless, the value ends up with the wrong parameter in the sequence diagram. Adding a second argument does not make a difference, which I tried since I know that it doesn't actually matter what name you give to the arguments (they do not have to match with the parameters, it follows the order of them (which by itself I also find rather peculiar)).
correction: the correct formatting for the examples is: foo( ingoing: int = 0 ): int and foo( ingoing: int ): int = 0
In fact, the mask value doesn't work well for the last argument. @Patrick: 1. do you know if the argument's name must be equals to the parameter name ? 2. do you know if it is allowed in UML to define an argument for the return value ? 3. why the class OperationUtil only accept one return parameter ?
