Protected method MemberwiseClone Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
Protected method MergeConfigure Allows the model element to configure itself immediately after the Merge process has related it to the target element.
Protected method MergeDisconnect Disconnects a source element from a target element.
Protected method MergeRelate Creates a relationship between this target element and the specified source element.
Protected method OnCopy Called when this element has been created as a copy of another element.
Protected method OnDeleted Called when this element has been deleted from the model.
Protected method OnDeleting Called when this element is about to be deleted.
Protected method OnResurrected Called when this element has been added back to a model.
Protected method OnRolePlayerPositionChanged Called when the position of a role has changed.
Protected method OnRolePlayerPositionChanging Called when a role player position is about to change.
Public method Static member RemoveExtension(ModelElement, DomainClassInfo) Remove any extension of the specified ModelElement that is of a particular domain type.
