Object Diagram
Object diagrams are used to show structural relationships between instantiated
class instances (e.g., objects). ese diagrams are very similar to class diagrams but
are more concrete in that every object represents a true in-memory software ele-
ment, rather than a definition of those elements (e.g., class).
Useful for:
Showing object dependencies
Illustrating run-time object structure
Reasoning about complex containment hierarchy structures
Illustrating constraints on object interactions
