PI79085: PROBLEM WHILE CONVERTING THE FLOWPORT TO PROXYPORT WITH CHANGETO() API.

IBM Rational Rhapsody 8.2.1
IBM Rational Rhapsody 8.3.0

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Steps:
  - Add a block to the block diagram
  - Add  a flowport to the block.
  - Change the flowport to proxyport through java api.
    IRPApplication myApp =
  RhapsodyAppServer.getActiveRhapsodyApplication();
  		IRPGraphElement grp = (IRPGraphElement)
  myApp.getSelectedGraphElements().getItem(1);
  		IRPModelElement ele = grp.getModelObject();
  		System.out.println(ele.getMetaClass());
  		ele.removeStereotype(ele.getStereotype());
  		IRPModelElement chnport = ele.changeTo("Port");
  		System.out.println(chnport.getMetaClass());
  		System.out.println("End");
  
  - Apply the proxyport stereotype to the changed port.
  - Apply interface type to the changed port (Which has
  flowproperties with out direction)
  
  -Check in the diagram that the port visually still remains as
  flow port .
  So , if you remove the port from the diagram and add it again
  with port->show all port then the visualization is changed to
  proxyport.
