Can we interacting with EA RTF generation engine!
« on: June 04, 2008, 02:23:43 pm »
Hi,

I am new to EA automation and addins development.

I wanted to know can we interact with EA RTF generation infrastructure, if at all. In general I wanted to achieve that customer can create a template for document in which they can choose which elements to enter in which part and what sub or related elements should be under it and whether they want it as numbered list or table.

Thanks for the help in advance!

The Automation Interface - Project Interface - does support generation of RTF documents using:
RunReport (String, String, String) see EA's help.
However I do not know of any means to Automate any editing of the RTF template in the RTF editor.

Thanks for the reply!

Let me clarify my requirment.

I am trying to create an addin which will allow user to create template and not the document.

In this template, user will specify which part of project/model is to be displayed in list/table format

Basically this task is about creating template generator. but creating this addin from scratch i wanted to know whether RTF generator of EA can be used on which interface can be created to customise the template and format as per the spefic project element.


The RunReport is to create a report for whole project. so not useful.

Please let me know if there are any SDKs of EA RTF generator.

Please reply ASAP!
