The inheritance of a MetaClass can easily be changed by setting the Inheritance reference to a new parent. The MetaClass will derive its structural definitions, for examples MetaProperties, Classifications, from the new parent now.
The inheritance of a MetaClass may only be changed if all of the following conditions are fulfilled:
- The MetaClass may not have any instances yet
- Every single MetaProperty of the new inherit owner must be a valid new MetaProperty for the MetaClass
