Hello Mark!

I had a quick look in the UML Specification (UML 2.1.2 Superstructure) and
couldn't find anything about the varargs parameter. I presume that it can be
considered a shorthand for a parameter with an ordered list of elements of a
certain type. This paired with some instruction to the code generator/from
the reverse engineering to document in the model how this is realized in the
language.

The Generics in Java is similar to the Class Template when it comes to
Generic classes. In this case it is an Feature Template parameter (according
to the UML 2.1.2 Superstructure). I don't know to what extent this is
supported by ArgoUML though.
