Connecting an Activity to an ActivityPartition

[Ralf]

while trying to generate my own BPMN 2.0 technology file, I get a problem to connect an Activity (UML-Type Activity) with a Pool (UML-Type ActivityPartition). Everytime I try to draw such a connector, I get a
"The requested Connection is not UML compliant"
error message.
Everything else works fine by now (quicklinks, toolbox, diagram, stereotypes etc).
Does anybody have an idea?

PS: I'm using a ControlFlow to connect...

Are you able to make the same connector manually?

If not, then you need to fix that problem - probably by using Tools|Options|Diagram [ ] Strict UML Syntax

HTH,

No, can't do it manually, but somehow the standard BPMN technology manages to create this connection.

I thought that it is maybe possible to disable the UML checking in a profile...

But I've now switched it from a ControlFlow to a Dependency. That works!

[Paolo F Cantoni]

If you change the UML setting - does it allow the connection in the AI?
Are you changing the dependency to a control flow afterward?

No, can't do it manually, but somehow the standard BPMN technology manages to create this connection.

The BPMN diagram is an extended Analysis diagram. EA doesn't do syntax checking on Analysis diagrams.

thanx! good to know. This solves my problem!
