Reverse engineering from a different location

[Samina]

Hi All,

I am working with documenting a project. I reversed engineered  the project code (which is in ActionScript). However, recently we had rearrange our project folder and move it to a new location. Now when I do a Synchronize on my original reversed engineered folders, It creates a second object instead of synchronizing the existing objects.  

How do i go about synchronizing my code from the new location correctly. I have links in my project that I dont want to redo and any help will be appreciated.

Probably somebody else would know it better, but I'd correct the file path in the class properties accordingly. I just know how to change them globally when forward engineering: Check the Auto generate files marker in the code gen for packages. Maybe you could save the files, gen. code and restore the files. That should bring it to synch again.

Take a look at Settings->Local paths.

Subsiuite the incorrect stem of the path with an ID.

"Apply Path" with this set, then modify the ID with new stem and then "Expand Path", all the paths will now point at the new location.
