webdoc wtf
« on: June 18, 2020, 11:38:02 pm »
Hi everybody,


I'm working on a profile where I want some artifact stereotypes for off-model documentation.

To this end I've created a stereotype webdoc. This has no shape script or anything, and I've got another couple stereotypes that work just fine.
But webdoc is rendered with an extra icon next to the artifact icon, looks like an old IE-style green globe thing.

Looking in the element's properties the webdoc stereotype comes from my profile and nowhere else.
I've got basically no other technologies enabled; I tried disabling even Basic UML2 and Core Extensions, but that icon is still there.
(Then I had to exit and start EA without opening a project and re-enable the core technologies but that's just because the MDG management thing is completely broken but that doesn't mean it needs fixing or anything so that's OK.)

I also grep'ed for "webdoc" in the installation's MDGTechnologies folder. Nothing.

What? I mean... what?

They hard-coded quite a bit in EA.exe.

Looks like.

Ironically, I do want an icon to show that a webdoc artifact is a document located on a web server. Just not that one, and not in that location.
