Hi

The new Mars release of QVTo anticipates removal of an inconsistency in
the use of "kind"/"type" between OCL and QVTo.

A new Model::objectsOfKInd method is introduced with the same
functionality as the old objectsOfType; it returns objects of the same
and derived classes. This is consistent with oclIsKindOf.

Unfortunately the new objectsOfType is now consistent with oclIsTypeOf;
it returns only objects of the same type. This is incompatible with
earlier QVTo releases and may lead to your transformations malfunctioning.

Workaround pending a resolution of [1]; recode you objectsOfType calls
as objectsOfKind.

Apologies for the inconvenience.

Regards

Ed Willink
