How to update reverse engineered class diagram?
« on: May 10, 2006, 04:21:18 am »
hi,
Perhaps this sound strange but i can't figure out how to do it.

I have already reverse engineered the class diagrams of a my vb.net solution. In the solution, i have different projects. In a particular project, i have a class containing enumerations and constants.

After getting the diagrams, i changed the names of the vb files, enumerations and constants.
I then reverse engineer again with the option "synchronize". The <<enumeration>> still shows the old names. If i choose "overwrite" existing classes, i get duplicate diagrams.

Did i miss anything?

Thanks.

Eve

Both the class name and filename need to be the same for synchronisation.  If either or both of those change, they need to be updated (in the model if it's changed in code) before synchronisation will work.
