Hi.
Is it possible to attach OCL restrictions on elements of a profile?
The first motivation is to see if a profile application is valid. The
second is to filter the options presented to the user.
For instance: if IŽm going to create a stereotype that extends Class
metaclass with a property that points to one of the classŽs properties, I
would like to restrict the selection list to only the properties of the
target class: not all properties of all models as it happens today (and
when I mean all, itŽs ALL, including even properties from the UML
metamodel itself).


Thanks.

Hi Alexandre,

Yes it is possible to attach OCL constraints on elements of a profile such
as stereotypes.
However, you would have to write a bit of code to evaluate such constraints
at runtime (we can provide code in a patch that will allow one to evalute
such constraints via the "validate" mechanism).
