Entity

Add a stereotyped Entity operation (e.g. <<ns>>, <<nsreadmulti>>, etc.)

None

Allowed

Rather than using Subclass with Replace, add the stereotyped operation through the use of Subclass without Replace. This will ensure that your subclass (and thus your new stereotyped operations) will be treated as 'External', and that you won't get discouraged warnings in Eclipse when you reference them.

Note that you will continue to get discouraged warnings if you directly reference operations in the base Entity, as these are Internal - this is by design.

Add a non-stereotyped Entity operation

None

Allowed

Rather than using Subclass with Replace, add the non-stereotyped operation through the use of Subclass without Replace. This will ensure that your subclass (and thus your new non-stereotyped operations) will be treated as 'External', and that you won't get discouraged warnings in Eclipse when you reference them.

Note that you will continue to get discouraged warnings if you directly reference operations in the base Entity, as these are Internal - this is by design.
