Scenario's and Documentation Generation
« on: April 10, 2006, 12:22:54 am »
I'm having a little problem getting the scenario's of use cases in my documention. The following is my model structure:

<model>
 <package>
   <activity>
     <activity>
       <Use Case>
         
       <Use Case/>
     </activity>
   </activity>
 </package>
</model>

The Use Case contains scenario's. The standard basic template does not output the scenario's (root for generation is a top level activity. When I select the Use Case as root, the scenario is outputted. I've played around with the template but nothing gives me the scenario....

Any ideas?

Unfortunately I have no idea regarding the documentation. I'm just curious why you place Use Cases inside Activities. I would expect it to be the other way around. ???

I use virtually the same structure (with business processes at the top level, which are only stereotyped activities).

I couldn't get the output to work from the standard basic template, but it is relatively OK if you make a new template by copying the Basic template it isn't too bad.

I use the following structure in my template:  


It takes a bit of playing to get what you want out of the template generator.
Good luck!


{Diagram.Name}
{Diagram.DiagramImg}
Figure:{Diagram.Figure}: {Diagram.Name}

< diagram
element >
{Element.Name}
{Element.Notes}

scenario >
Flow of Events
{ElemScenario.Type}
{ElemScenario.Scenario}
{ElemScenario.Notes}

< scenario

< element
child packages >
< child packages
< package

Ok, I've got it working finally. Their seems to be a little bug:

When recursivly iterating elements and child elements the scenarios and requirements are not reported for child elements.

When recursing via diagrams the scenarios are reported.
