Summary: Merging of associations failed

Initial Comment:
if two topic maps are merge on demand by calling the method Topic.mergeIn, it fails if there are an association type in both topic maps with a merged type ( the same type ). tinyTim throws an ModelConstraint Exception:

Exception in thread "main" org.tmapi.core.ModelConstraintException: All constructs must belong to the same topic map
	at org.tinytim.internal.utils.Check._reportModelConstraintViolation(Unknown Source)
	at org.tinytim.internal.utils.Check._sameTopicMap(Unknown Source)
	at org.tinytim.internal.utils.Check.sameTopicMap(Unknown Source)
	at org.tinytim.core.MemoryTopicMap.createAssociation(Unknown Source)
	at org.tinytim.core.MemoryTopicMap.createAssociation(Unknown Source)
	at TinyTimMergeTest.main(TinyTimMergeTest.java:54)

And because of the fact that I try to merge, the associations don't belong  to the same topic map.

Oh, this was a mistake, the attached file should not be empty. This is the
contained code:

TopicMapSystem topicMapSystem =
TopicMapSystemFactory.newInstance()		.newTopicMapSystem();

TopicMap topicMapA = topicMapSystem.createTopicMap("http://a");
TopicMap topicMapB = topicMapSystem.createTopicMap("http://b");

Topic typeA = topicMapA.createTopic();
typeA.addItemIdentifier(topicMapA.createLocator("http://type"));

Topic roleA = topicMapA.createTopic();
roleA.addItemIdentifier(topicMapA.createLocator("http://role"));

Topic playerA = topicMapA.createTopic();
playerA.addItemIdentifier(topicMapA.createLocator("http://player"));

Association associationA = topicMapA.createAssociation(typeA, new
Topic[0]);
associationA.createRole(roleA, playerA);

Topic typeB = topicMapB.createTopic();
typeB.addItemIdentifier(topicMapB.createLocator("http://type"));

Topic roleB = topicMapB.createTopic();
roleB.addItemIdentifier(topicMapB.createLocator("http://role"));

Topic playerB = topicMapB.createTopic();
playerB.addItemIdentifier(topicMapB.createLocator("http://player"));

Association associationB = topicMapB.createAssociation(typeB, new
Topic[0]);
associationB.createRole(roleB, playerB);

//THIS METHOD THROWS AN EXCEPTION		
topicMapA.mergeIn(topicMapB);

Message:
I am confused. 
* The attached file does not do anything, it just declares a main
function
* Topics from different topic maps cannot be merged. As tinyTiM says
correctly: It's a model constraint violation since "All constructs must
belong to the same topic map".
* TopicMap.mergeIn(otherTopicMap) should work

Maybe you can provide more details? Are you trying to do the following:
topicA = tmA.createTopic();
topicB = tmB.createTopic();

topicA.mergeIn(topicB);
? 

If so, tinyTiM's behaviour is correct.
