Including a file in EA
« on: June 23, 2005, 07:18:39 am »
Hi,

Im using the professional edition and I know i can include a document (for example, a word file or an xml example) through a hyperlink or as a link in a diagram in an element.

Problem here is that the document remains external. What i mean is that if the document is moved, without updating the link in EA, the document will not be displayed. Also, if i move the .eap file to another network it naturally won't be able to find the linked document(s).

Is there any way to incorporate a file into EA (maybe in the corporate version)?

Not sure you can do that (even if you have corporate edition).
I think EA only keep link to file as a string in DataBase.
The file is not include in the EA project.

You have the update link by yourself or to put all information in your UML tools without using external file  :)

You can use a relative path. Refer also to this discussion.
