context in linked universe

We noticed that the context created in the core universe is not carried over to the linked universe. Is anyone there having this problem and figuring out a good solution for it besides creating the context again in the linked universe? Is it possible to write a script to move context from core universe to linked universe from repository?

Any suggestion or comment or advice helps!

This is by design. Contexts are generally not implemented in a core or kernel universe for this reason. Contexts are sets of joins. Anything in a core or linked universe cannot be changed in the derived universe. Since the context would in all likelihood need to be expanded to include more joins, and since it CANNOT be changed, the contexts are not carried over.

When you have your joins completed in your linked or derived universe, you should create your contexts only in those universes.

Is there a fast way of copying the context from one universe to its linked universe ?

does anyone have a script that could do this ?
