Ok folks, here goes.....
I am currently doing a lot of Access VBA development and would like to use UML to model all of the classes, modules forms etc as I go along - good software engineering etc.....
Now EA will happily help me to manage the VB aspects of the project - classes and ActiveX controls etc. Unfortunately, there is no way to hook it into the VBA needed in the project.
However, what I was thinking was that if I was to automatically create a VB project that mapped to the VBA creating forms etc programmatically from the info in VBA then I would be able to import it all into EA and document what is needed.
If I was then to write a reverse tool to generate Access from the VB definitions then it would seem as though this could work.
A number of questions then -
1) Does this seem a sensible approach?
2) Is there any tools out there that will do this for me?
3) Would anyone else be interested if I did this?
4) Geoff, is there any intention to make EA pickup VBA anyway?
5) Would I be better to generate XMI for the import, but it would not solve the Access creation issues
Any thoughts, comments or even derision, welcome.....
Matt
