Automation Interface, Add-Ins and Tools / Re: Value of 'Direction' in the database

« on: April 05, 2017, 11:21:49 pm »

Ehrm, no. The direction is stored in t_connector.direction

Not the connector direction. The label direction indicator.

On the label of a connector you can choose the direction so that a litle black arrow appears.

That's in t_diagramlinks.Geometry / DiagramLinks.Geometry, which is a complex property consisting of semicolon-separated property=value pairs. One of these properties is called LMT. LMT is in turn a colon-separated list of subproperty=value pairs, and the subproperty we're after is DIR:
0 for No indicator;
1 for To Destination;
-1 for To Source.

Here's a sample geometry for a connector with a To Source label direction:

Code: (t_diagramlinks.Geometry) [Select]

SX=1;SY=9;EX=1;EY=9;EDGE=2;$LLB=;LLT=;LMT=CX=25:CY=13:OX=0:OY=0:HDN=0:BLD=0:ITA=0:UND=0:CLR=-1:ALN=0:DIR=-1:ROT=0;LMB=;LRT=;LRB=;IRHS=;ILHS=;

Thanks!

What's the relation between t_connector and t_diagramlinks?

On the label of a connector you can choose the direction so that a litle black arrow appears. Now I want to query that value, but I can't find  that value in the DB.

I added the string attribute pdata with default value HideEStereo=1;HideStereo=1; to my diagram metaclass, it works for the elements, no stereotype is visible. But for the attributes the stereotype still appears.

When you create an mdg with uml profiles, and you don't use shapescripts, how can you prevent that the stereotype appears on your diagram?

« on: March 10, 2017, 06:13:48 pm »

I found it:

Code: [Select]

'returns an ArrayList without duplicates
function removeDuplicates(arraylist)
dim result
set result = CreateObject("System.Collections.ArrayList")
dim element as EA.Element
for each element in arrayList
dim b
b = contains(result, element)
if b = false then
result.add(element)
end if
next
set removeDuplicates = result
end function


'returns boolean
function contains(result, element)
contains = false
dim res as EA.Element
for each res in result
if res.ElementID = element.ElementID then
contains = true
exit for
end if
next
end function

Automation Interface, Add-Ins and Tools / VBScript - Remove duplicate elements from arraylist

Is it possible to remove duplicate elements from an arraylist?
I tried with some functions but no success.

Code: [Select]

'returns an ArrayList without duplicates
function removeDuplicates(arraylist)

dim result
set result = CreateObject("System.Collections.ArrayList")

dim element as EA.Element
for each element in arrayList
dim b
b = contains(arraylist, element)

'if contains then
'
'else
'
'end if


next
set removeDuplicates = result
end function

Code: [Select]

'returns boolean
function contains(arraylist, element)
set contains = false
dim res as EA.Element
for each res in arrayList
if res.ElementID = element.ElementID then
set contains = true
exit for
end if
next


end function

Thanks Geert, but at first sight there isn't any difference with the search group scripts, both are listed in the model search window.

What's the purpose of scripts that are created in the Model Search Group? I can't find any explanation about this script group...

So if I add these attributes to an mdg file it wont't work in 12.1?

When I add a model pattern it appears default under "Other" in the list under "Technology". But can you manage the different categories in that list?
For example, creating a new category and add your created patterns to that new category?

Thanks,

I've just installed EA 12.1, but when I want to import an MDG technology and I navigate to the 'Project' menu, the "MDG Technology Import" option (and some other) are not visible. How can i solve this issue?

Thanks

Has EA the possibility to import XMI files that can be used as model patterns in the model wizard?

Can't seem to be able to reproduce it on version 12.1.1230 either.
I guess it has been fixed.

Matthias, which version are you using?

Geert

I'm using 12.0.1215, but I will try it on 12.1.

But why does it work in that tutorial? Is it because they used an older version?
