[news.eclipse.modeling.mdt.uml2] Re: extending a stereotype

["James Bruck" <jbruck@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Robert,

You can have one stereotype inherit from another (generalization between 
stereotypes).   The more specialized stereotype will inherit attributes from 
the more general.   OCL constraints would also apply although OCL 
expressions on stereotypes are sometimes written using the "base_" property 
as a context indicating the type to which the stereotype is applied (you may 
have to watch out for that).

Regards,
- James.
