Problem conclusion

• THIS PROBLEM IS PERMANENT RESTRICTION IN
  CATIA
  .
  Restriction Explanation:
  This is not a regression. Replace of a non updated
  feature has never worked well and cannot work
  well. It is why it has been forbidden.
  .
  Replace of non updated feature is not possible for
  the following reasons:
  1) When selecting a new feature, in order to accept
  or not the new feature, some checks are done on
  the topological result of the replaced feature and
  the replacing feature. If the feature is not updated,
  it has not the good result and so check cannot be
  done.
  2) Reroute is impossible. To calculate the sub-
  elements to reroute we need that the feature has a
  updated result. Otherwise calculation of these sub-
  elements would fail or would return a bad result.
  .
  By-Pass:
  Update the udf before updating it.
