update ports after a new contextdragconnection().

Is it possible to update I/O ports of an object during a simulation run. Lets say I create a new connection in an event trigger, using contextdragconnection(). But upstream object is not updating it's Output port list. SendTo logic is round robin but the newly added processor remains idle. What to do ? sample.fsm

When you create a connection, both sides are closed by default. Processors have their input open when they are accepting items. After the contextdragconnection, try

openip(node("MODEL:/Processor6"), 1 );
