copy user settings
« on: November 24, 2004, 02:30:34 pm »
hi,
at first: I'm really impressed of all the functions of EA :-)

I can configure so much things...

tagged values, stereotypes, templates,...
tools-options.....

as I see, some configurations are done for the user
on the specific machine,
some configurations are stored into the project

at the moment I'm only working alone with EA,
but soon more users should use it.

and I want to have the same behaviour for all
users and for all projects of the software-family.

so my question:
how can I do this ?
I read in the docs that some configs were stored
in the registry. which parts of the current-user-->
software-->sparx systems can be copied to another machine / user ?

and should I do all project-specific changes in an empty
project and give this as base for new projects to other
users ?

--
I think many of you run into these questions and hopefully
have found good solutions.

thanks for infos

regards

ekkehard

Hi ekkehard,
most of the config info is stored in the database. So all people sharing a project will get these parameters.  Projects are copied from a base file (template) in the very beginning. This template will develop as you use EA. Keep common info you use in every project inside this template (as for example the list of authors, stereotype configs etc.). Next time you start a project from scratch, you have a lot of templates you already can start with.

Regarding personal config you can leave this with each user since over time they will find a way to suit their need in an optimal way. I never bothered with the registry...
