Not all diagrams generated in Build 479
« on: April 03, 2002, 04:59:29 pm »
Howdy,

In my Model, I have a series of packages under the use case view for the different categories of usage scenarios in my project. Under each if these packages I have a use case diagram and a bunch of use case elements.

Under each use case element, I have a sequence diagram that represents the implementation of that use case.

When I generate my RTF documentation, It generates a heading for the packages of use cases and it generates the use case diagram under each package. But the RTF docs don't put anything in for the individual use cases and they don't generate diagrams for the sequence diagrams I have under the use case elements.

Can anyone tell me if there are parameters that need to be tweaked to get these to show up in the RTF documentation?

Some more info about my previous post.....

I moved the diagrams out from under the use case element so they are directly under the package and that seems to work ok in terms of generating the diagrams (but it's not how I'd like to organize them in my model).

On the panle for generating RTF doc, I saw a check box labeled "document all elements" which I thought might fix my problem because there was no doc generated for the use case elements either. But when I tried to generate the doc with that check box set, I got an error message "Join operation not supported" or something like that and then EA crashed.

I'm on buil 479

Hi,

The problem is with the Phase criteria. This has been altered to provide a more detailed selection of packages based on Phase. Unfortunately there is a small problem which will be fixed in the next couple of days - this causes the two problems you have reported.

In the meantime, the workaround is to place the word 'All' in the package phase edit box (no quotes or angle brackets around All, just the word - case sensitive as well). Also uncheck the 'Document All Elements' box until the patch is uploaded.

My apologies for this - I will make the fix available as build 480 as soon as possible

The work around to the problem you described seems to work just fine. I moved my sequence diagrams back under the use cases they blong to and when I followed your instructions, both the use case and the diagrams under showed up in the generated RTF just fine.

Thanks!
