N.-ary Association in toolbox profiles

[st1led]

Hello! I'm developing a toolbox profile for EA using the MSG technologies as described in the guide.

I've created a stereotype, say MyAssociation, which extends the metaclass "n-ary Association", and I've added in the stereotype Elements which extends the metaclass ToolboxProfile an attribute named

Code: [Select]

MyToolboxName::MyAssociation(UML::n-ary Association)
which has type "n-ary Association". The problem is that, once running my Add-In, I can't drag&drop the MyAssociation element from the toolbox (it doesn't show up on the diagram).

I guess it's some kind of a problem releated to the metaclass "n-ary Association" which doesn't seem to be in the UML metamodel (although it's depicted as a metaclass in the "Create New Metaclass" dialog), because my other stereotypes extending other metaclasses like Class, Association, UseCase and such work fine.

Any ideas?

Try this:

Code: [Select]

MyToolboxName::MyAssociation(UML::[highlight]AssociationElement[/highlight])For a full list of elements that can be included in toolbox profiles, see this page in the help file.

Thank you, using "AssociationElement" fixed my problem. I was getting confused since usually the metaclasses have the same name as the elements that can be included in the toolbox, but this type the metaclass had name "n-Ary Association" while the element had name "AssociationElement".
