Add root node from version control
« on: February 10, 2009, 03:10:07 am »
We have a model for our application.
Each module in the application is a package in the model and each package contains the use case model, class diagram etc for that package. It is all shared through version control (TFS).
Adding new elements and diagrams in a package works fine and all other uses can access it by getting the latest version from source control.

Now we added a new module in the application and thus a root node (package) in our model. And added it to source control. No problems.

But how do the other users add the new root node? I'm looking for a "get package from source control"-type of functionality. Which exists but only if you first select a parent package. But there is none, since it is a root node.

Is there a way to do this or is it us who set up the model incorrect? (we are fairly new to working with EA in this way).

The model itself is not under version control - all according to the recommendations.

Thanks!

Try the "Get Package" from source control.  Just select another package, and before importing EA should allow you to choose if you want it imported as root node.

Not all that logical... but it worked. Thanks!
