To generalize the merge relationship in UML, do i need to first extend the
merge relationship (using stereotypes) and then generalize that
stereotype?
Can i directly generalize the merge relationship in UML and make it part
of the UML meta-model (heavy-weight extension).
My aim is to use the new merge relationship in different projects (just
like we can apply profile to any model).
Your suggestion to specialize the UMLUtil.PackageMerger class and use it
to inspect the applied stereotypes seems to be a lengthy work to this
simple problem. Shall i define this specialization in the profile where i
have created new stereotype as extension to merge relationship?
