Getting parameters of messages in sequences

[iMikel]

 Hello,

i am extending EA using the Java-API and have a question concerning sequence diagrams.

If a message (in other words: a connector of type "Sequence")
has not only a name but has also Parameters, how can i get / access them via API.

The method "connector.getName() just returns the "pure" message name, not its parameters ...

Does someone know?

This information should be available from Connector.MiscData(1).  This field is read-only from automation however.  If you intend to write values back to this field, you would need to make a direct SQL update to [t_connector].[PDATA2].

HTH.

Hello,

thanks for advice, bust MISCDATA(0) and MISCDATA(1) contain
other informations, and the connectors properties also contain
information other than the parameters ...

Where the hell are the parameters ... ?

Original signature = void dostuff(double b, int a)

If you take the Connector.name = "doStuff(double, int)"

and the contents of MiscData[1] = retval=void;params=;paramsDlg=b, a;

and apply paramsDlg in order you get

return= void : param double b : param int a

To Sparx: What is supposed to be in params?

Personal note : It would be a lot cleaner to link to the actual SupplierEnd methodId. The user would then have access to all of the method/parameter metadata that the modeler has entered.

The actual method is linked to from a tagged value on the message.  The rest of that field that gives information about the operations is essentially a cached version.
