Hi Ron, I guess we would need to make TypeHelper.define support a mode where you would only give a patial definition of a Type and it would be used as a delta to modify an exisitng type.
A simpler approach, which may be working already, is to use the Tuscany-specific SDOUtil.createProperty() method to modify the existing type. Have you tried that? Frank.
