RELATED IDEAS

links are not following the data model after change of artifact type

See this idea on ideas.ibm.com

Observed behavior: I figured out that there is a link “Derived from” from a Requirement in one PA to an Information in another PA, which is not supported by the data model. (limited by a defined Linked Constraint)

Steps to reproduce: Initially, the link was done between artifacts of the same type ( Requirement to Requirement) where the link type "Derived from" is correct and supported by the data model.  Later on, the target artifact became Information. The "Derived from" link is still present which is not supported by the data model between these two artifact types. A suspect trace was generated but there is no error message about the wrong link type which is not supported by the data model (Requirement “Derived from” Information).

Expected behavior: There shall be a tool warning that an unsupported link type is used. The link shall be changed before saving the change of the artifact type is possible. Currently there is just following message: "Confirm change, are you sure you want  to change the type of the artifact? Some attributes of the artifact may be discarded if its type is changed."
