EA macros/scripts

[aghy]

Hi,

I'm quite new in this topic  :-/
Where can I find any good descriptions about scripting the EA?

Thanks a lot,
Agnes

Hi Agnes,

EA does not have a scripting language per se - but it does have something better. Almost all of EA functionality is exposed via the Automation Interface (COM), which allows you to manipulate EA via any programming language that supports COM interface. If you know how to write, for example, MS Excel macros, you can use the exact same language to control EA.
Search the help for "Automation Interface", look into the forum section under the same name and look here: http://www.sparxsystems.com.au/AutIntExamples.htm for some examples.

Hope this helps!
Bruno

Ah, but what about an add-in that provides some basic macro composition and add-in capability that can be run from within EA?

Hi Fred,

would that be a part of your toolkit? Sounds like a good idea!
