Code generation Path

[cable000]

EA Version: 7.1.834

We have a fairly large base of code in C++ and java. Is their a way to specify relative to an environment variable the output for the source code.

Given a directory structure something like this ---

ROOT/src/Entity/Entity.java
ROOT/src/Capability/Capability.java
ROOT/src/ResourceManager/ResourceManager.java

I defined the 'Default Source Directory' option in Tools->Options-Java to be %ROOT%.


If the environment variable ROOT=C:\dev but another developer wants to check out the model and they define their ROOT=C:\work.

I tried to simulate this by closing EA and resetting the ROOT environment variable but when I restart EA and I go to generate the code it still wants to generate based off of the old environment variable location ( e.g. an absolute path )

Is their a way to set EA up so that the path to the source files it is generating are using a relative path?

Thanks

Maybe EA's 'Local Paths' feature helps you.

In detial, see the EA's help file, 'Local Paths' page.

Hope this helps.

EA doesn't use the environment variables for local paths.  As was already said, look up 'Local Paths' in EA's help.

Yes I believe this is what I'm looking for. Thanks!
