Part Association relationship between Constraint Blocks
« on: February 06, 2023, 08:30:39 pm »
Hello!
I am currently working on a project with EA 16, where I am trying to model a complex constraint relationship. For simplicity, I started with a simplified model that contains a "Constraint Context" block, which is connected to a Constraint Block "Constaint1" as a Part Association. "Constaint1" should be composed of two subordinate Constraint blocks "Constraint 1.1" and "Constraint1.2". In the end, the structure resembles the last image in the following entry of the User Guide: https://sparxsystems.com/enterprise_architect_user_guide/16.1/modeling_languages/sysml_constraintblock_from_equation.html

Now, when I try to draw Part Association relationships between the Constraint blocks, the following error message appears: "The requested connection is not UML compliant".
What is the reason for this and is there perhaps another way to connect Constraint blocks?

Thank you for your help!
Thomas

I don't know the exact reason, but if you want to avoid this message, go to Start | Preferences |Links, and uncheck the "Strict Connector Syntax" checkbox.

Just try again and check if you can complete your diagram connectors.

It silences the message. But you're probably have a non-compliant model afterwards. If you think the connector is blocked falsely you should report a bug instead.
