how to muliti-delete entities?

[siva_dc]

Hi,

I am new to EA. We are evaluating the EA as the standard CASE tool for our client!!!

I am trying to delete some of the classes added by code re-engineering. How Do I multi-select and delete?

Also exporting package structure as XML and importing into another project does work. Is this a known bug?

Thanks
Siva

Hi Siva,

EA does not currently support multi-select / delete from the project explorer.  (You can multi-select and delete from diagrams, though this does not delete the elements from the deep model).

The XMI import/export should work for packages- it's a standard means of porting models between various uml tools and across EA models.  I'd need some more details of what the error is you are experiencing to see what's going wrong.  At a guess, I suggest you use the "Strip GUIDs" option when importing your model.  This creates new GUIDs for the incoming elements and is necessary when importing/exporting between models created from the same base.

Hope this explains.

Regards,
Ben
