Property auto-generate field!

[PedroLuz]

Hello there! There is any way to make Enterprise Architect generate a field for each property that i make in a Class?

Like, i create a new property called name of the string type

there is any feature of Enterprise Architect that generates a variable named _name of the type string

Yeah, it's kinda boring make another attribute just for adding a field to the property you've just created!

Oh, by the way, im using C#

Hi Pedro,

Good news. Yes, this is fairly easy to do once you know where to look.

Open the Tools | Options | Source Code Engineering dialog. Now look near the bottom of the dialog - below the second divider line - for some naming conventions. Here's where you will set up the relationship between the field (i.e. attribute) name and the property name.

Now when you create a new attribute for a class, click the Property check box. You may have to save the attribute first. You'll be presented with a dialog where you can set read and write access, as well as some other settings.

HTH, David
