Stereotype redefines does not work on connectors
« on: March 01, 2023, 02:01:04 am »
Details:
When I redefine an existing stereotype, my stereotype will automatically be used instead of the standard stereotype, if I set my MDG technology as the "active" one.
This same mechanism fails for connectors.


Steps to Reproduce:
- create a stereotype that redefines ArchiMate3::ArchiMate_Realization
- create a stereotype that redefines ArchiMate3::ArchiMate_ApplicationComponent
- Export both stereotypes to a UML profile
- Add this profile to an MDG file
- Import the MDG file into your model
- Set this MDG technology to be the Active one
- Create a ArchiMate3::ArchiMate_ApplicationComponent element. Notice that this is now correctly the redefined stereotype
- Create a ArchiMate3::ArchiMate_Realization relation. Notice that this is still a standard Archimate Realization, so the redefine did not work.
