dealing with c++ struct in UML

How do we deal with the C++ struct in UML class diagrams. Should I consider it as a class with the stereotype <<Struct>>? And if this struct has a pointer to the struct type itself, what is the relationship between the struct and it self?

  • "How do we deal with the C++ struct in UML class diagrams?"

    structs behave like Classes in UML but all of their members are public.

    "...if this struct has a pointer to the struct type itself, what is the relationship between the struct and it self?" - Self referential. It has a pointer to itself. Answered here.

    Google searching is a brilliant thing :). Hope this answers your question. If you have any more, just drop a comment.
