Local Path & XMI
« on: May 24, 2005, 01:51:02 pm »
Hi, I cannot seem to get the local path feature working in EA 5.0 (build 764).  I have a feeling I must be doing something wrong.  Here are the steps I am doing:

Create package Blah in the Project Browser.  Right-Click Package Blah -> Package Control -> Configure...

Control Package [tick]
Version Control: (None)
XMI Filename: Blah.xml
UML/XMI Type: Enterprise Architect XMI/UML 1.3
Log Import/Export [tick]
<click OK>

Configuration -> Local Paths -> <click New>

Path: C:\TEMP\XMI\
ID: XMI
Type: XMI
<Click Save>

Select the local path I just created and <click Apply Path>

Dialog box says:

"This will convert existing XMI controlled package pathsXMI to the new relative path.  Do you wish to proceed?"

<click Yes>

Dialog box says:

"Process complete! 0 records affected"

So it appears that this did nothing?

If I go back and right-click Package Blah and choose Package Control -> Configure...

I set XMI Filename to: %XMI%\Blah.xml

<click Ok>

Then I right-click Package Blah and choose Package Control -> Save Package to file

I get an error dialog that says:

"Error writing XML file"
<click Ok>
"Error writing XML Log file"
<click Ok>

How can I make this work?  What exactly am I doing incorrectly?

Thanks in advance!
