How to handle the Groups of container changes and groups of symbol changes conflict. Implicitly, the connections linked to the objects change, as well.
The graphic illustrates why such a complex conflict arises.
The organizational unit responsible for the functions F2 and F3 was changed from Alice to Bob in the source model. Therefore, model transformation generates a new lane Bob in the target model, in which the tasks now assigned to Bob (F2 and F3) and the end event End are embedded. If you perform an interactive merge now, a complex conflict arises in the model resulting from the interactive merge.
If you include the connections, a complex conflict results from the complex conflict Replacement in source model and three complex conflicts Simple container change. The conflict is highlighted in red.
All conflict groups are hierarchically categorized as subordinate conflicts below the complex conflict. Each group has subordinate simple conflicts.
The graphic shows both variants of complex conflict resolution:
The following graphic shows an example of the conflict Group of symbol changes:
