[Edapt] replace attribute with existing abstract class [message #1836148]

We use edapt 1.4.1.

I have two classes:
Base:
someString: EString

Other:
someString: EString

Which edapt operations do I have to use to get this:
Other -> Base

The attribute name and type are identical in both classes.

Best regards,
Ralf

I actually found a solution, but it is a bit awkward:
1. select both classes
2. execute extract supertype operation with both attributes and Temp as supertype name
3. add Temp to the supertype list of Other
4. select Other
5. execute remove superfluous supertype (Temp) operation
6. select Temp.someString attribute
7. execute push down feature operation
8. select Base
9. execute remove supertype (Temp) operation
10. select Temp
11. execute delete class operation
