Deleting links in Use cases - Not working on CVS
« on: June 13, 2006, 11:31:47 pm »
Our EA model is version controlled and used by multiple users across different locations.

While addition of associations (or other links) in a Use case diagram is reflected to other users, the same is not happening on "Deletion" of use case relationships.

So when the associations are deleted on a use case diagram and changes "checked in" the change is not reflected on other users' model (on get Latest).

Is this a known Bug? or something we might be missing

Are you sure you deleted the Association from the model or only the diagram.  EA's unique user interface can be confusing on this point...   ::).  Each user can set up the action of various key combinations so that the same key combinations may have different effects on different machines.

I now have my settings set so that if I delete either a shape or a connector from the model, EA will ask me to confirm.  That way I know what the actual state of play is...

HTH,

This is what I tried

Select the association to be deleted -> "Del" key ->  "Remove connector" popup appears -> Delete the connector from the model and checkin.

get Latest from another machine. Association "Deleted" on other machine still appears.

Thanks for your help
