EA 15.2 What's happened to the Archimate Technology Object?

[Glassboy]

This morning I've been doing a bit of network documentation.  I created an ArchiMate_Path object to describe a connection between two sites (ArchiMate_Facility).  I then went to create a ArchiMate Technology Object to represent the Circuit ID.  Hmm it's not on any tool box.  So I dropped on a class, and changed its stereotype to get a Technology Object (yah!).  However, I quickly discovered that I can not link it to anything.

I know objects aren't meant to to manifest directly in viewpoints, but network links are multi-layered.  One connection may be delivered by one or more underlying physical connections.  It was a very useful work around in previous versions of EA.

In ArchiMate 3, Technology Object is an abstract concept. Concrete specializations are Artifact and Material.

If you really need to try disabling the strict setting.
