A type of collaboration role, a classifier role Class Role shape icon is a slot for an object in a collaboration diagram. It is represented by the class rectangle symbol with only the name compartment showing. The name compartment contains the string:

classRoleName : Classifiername

and can include a full path of enclosing packages where necessary, for example:

display_Window:Windowing System::GraphicWindows::Window
