Package Dependencies
A Package held as an asset in the Reusable Asset Service registry might contain elements and diagrams that have relationships with objects in other Packages. The Packages containing these 'external' objects will also have been added to the Registry, to support the first Package, and will be listed in the 'Registry Browser' tab along with other, unrelated Packages. You can establish whether the selected Package in the Registry Browser has links to other Packages in the Registry, and which they are, by reviewing the 'Dependency' tab.
Package A depends on Package B if any of these constructs (or their Tagged Values) in Package A references elements in Package B:
- Elements
- Attributes
- Operations
- Operation Parameters
- Diagrams
- Connectors
