Activity final node (dictionary item)
For automation interface information about an Activity Final Node, see
Control node (automation interface). For automation interface purposes, an Activity Final Node is a Control Node that has its Node Type set to Activity Final Node.
An activity final node is a final node that stops all flows in an activity.
Create an Activity Final Node through a Modeler explorer pane or inside an Activity Partition, Interruptible Activity Region or Structured Activity Node:
• In a Modeler pane, right-click an Activity or Structured Activity Node, select > > .
• On an Activity Diagram, click the
Activity Final Node button, and then click in free space or an Activity Group.
In the Dictionary pane, Activity Final Nodes are listed in the UML\Control Nodes folder.
When used on an Activity Diagram, an Activity Final Node's notation is as follows.
The View Options on an Activity Diagram allow you to show or hide the Name. In addition, the view options allow you to dock the Activity Final Node onto the boundary of an Activity Partition. The view options are set through the Control Node entry. For more information, see
Control node view options - activity diagram.
On an Activity Diagram, you can populate an Activity Final Node's missing Activity Flows, Comments and Constraints: right-click the Activity Final Node, click Populate, and then click the appropriate command.
On an Activity Diagram, you can populate an Activity Final Node's missing Activity Flows, Comments and Constraints: right-click the Activity Final Node, point to Populate, and then click the appropriate command.
In the Modeler panes, a short-cut symbol
on the Activity Final Node's icon indicates that the item is a stub. For more information, see
Stubs.
The following sections provide information about how an Activity Final Node is used in the model. For more information about a property, item, model part or diagram, click it.
Properties
In addition to the
standard properties an Activity Final Node has these properties:
Owned by
Structured Activity Node - Applies only when the Activity Final Node is scoped directly to a Structured Activity Node.
Owns
Control Flow - The Control Flow is owned jointly by Activity Final Node and the associated item. The access permissions you have to a Control Flow are determined by the access permissions you have to its source item.
Dependency - The Dependency is owned jointly by the Activity Final Node and the other associated item. The access permissions you have to a Dependency are determined by the access permissions of the dependent item.
IO Flow - The IO Flow is owned jointly by the Activity Final Node, the IO Flow's other linked item and the IO Flow's IO Item.
Object Flow - The Object Flow is owned jointly by Activity Final Node and the associated item. The access permissions you have to an Object Flow are determined by the access permissions you have to its source item.

Stereotype - To make an Activity Final Node valid for a Stereotype, set up Control Node a valid item type.
