Need help with 'Export to CSV' of Package
« on: November 10, 2003, 04:35:43 pm »
I would really like to export select contents of a package to a CSV file for loading and manipulation in Excel.  The Export to CSV seems like it might help but only appears to make available attributes of first-level items in a package (e.g. classes).

I also wish to export the attributes of the classes within the package and the types of those attribuites as part of the CSV export.

I thought the 'Types' field in the export dialog might help as it is documented to:

"List of types to export (leave blank for all). Sepearet multiple types with , "

but I am not clear what 'types' can go in this field.  Nothing I put in the field seems to effect the generated output??

Can anyone help me with this?

I second that request.

Probably a second way of exporting is neede for that?
Something whre you have a header line fpr each element followed by blocks of lines for each feature.

The header line would just look like now, e.g defined as type TAB name TAB stereotype. You then define what you want as blocks, e.g. attributes,operations,requirements. And for each of those you define the rows again:
type TAB name TAB stereotype -- for attributes
returntype TAB name TAB allParams -- for operations

And so on. Import of such a structure is likely not needed or not that important.

Export would be quite handy. I found the parent post because I was searching for this feature.
