[news.eclipse.modeling.mdt.uml2] Stereotype and Properties

[Thibault Landré <thibault.landre@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I would like to understand why in the uml2 editor, it is possible to 
edit a property of a sterotype typed by a primitiveType whereas  it is 
not possible when the property is typed by a Datatype ?

TestCase1 :
StereotypeA has a property (prop) typed by a primitiveType (Real for 
instance). StereotypeA has an extension on Metaclass 'Element'
When applying the stereotype to a class, the properties view allows you 
to edit the property 'prop'.

TestCase2 :
StereotypeB has a property (propB) typed by a datatype (Time for 
instance). StereotypeB has an extension on Metaclass 'Element'
When applying the stereotype to a class, you can't edit the property of 
StereotypeB (propB is not displayed in the properties view).

Why ?
I have look into the UML OMG specification to see if a difference 
between a PrimitiveType and DataType could explain this behaviour, but I 
have not found any clue.

Thanks,

Thibault
