Hi, I have a few questions about EA

  Anyone know if there is any way to establish the version control to all packages of a model?

  Is possible to query an object class change history without make a global package (version control is set on the package) query?

  Is possible to separate the diagrams, classes, objects.. on many files in opposite to one single eap file?

  Is there anyway to enable multi selection on elements on the same package?

Thanks!

Hi,
(1) Version control: I think there is a doco in the white paper section of the sparx site. Yes you can vc a single root package and have all sub-packages etc. stored as a single file in the repository. the eap data is converted to xmi and the xml file is stored in vc.
(2) Nice diff tool for comparing current with stored data. difficult to go back in history. Std vc tools could be used, but you're just comparing xml - not helpful. Takes a fair bit of workaround to get EA to compare two revisions!
(3) I think you may be asking if the project can be separated into a number of files - yes. Create a package for each collection that you want and control them seperately. You can also create a containing 'global' package and store that to ease distribution (only the stubs are stored in the containing package, so you're not double storing).
(4) Probably not?
Use the search link above the forum listings for particular topics - lot's of useful info there.
