Toolbox with extended stereotypes
« on: September 10, 2018, 04:30:16 pm »
I'm having issues building a toolbox for extended stereotypes.

The help page says to create a generalization between the stereotype and the metaclass that represents an existing stereotype.

I did as instructed, and then I tried to create a toolbox for my stereotype using the profile helper. I use the button "Add" and select my stereotype, but then nothing happens.

In previous versions of EA you had to create two connectors. One generalization to the existing stereotype, and one extend relation to the base metatype.
As an experiment I tried this and it magically made it work.

Does anyone have similar experiences? Am I doing something wrong, or is there a bug in the profile helper for toolboxes.

I don't think the helper has ever created the second connection to the base metatype.
