Cannot add a File to a Use Case

[michael.jeier]

Hi,

I'm trying to add a File to a Use Case, but it isn't working though I get true, when I do an Update(). The File is simply not added to the properties when I check it manually on the Use Case. I also check before, whether it's the right Use Case - it is.  :-?

Here's the code snippet:

Code: [Select]

          // element is an EA.Element
            MessageBox.Show("Use Case name: " + element.Name
                    + " element ID: " + element.ElementID);
            element.Files.AddNew(strURL, "Web Address");
            bool updated = element.Update();
            element.Files.Refresh();
            element.Refresh();
            MessageBox.Show("updated: " + updated.ToString()); // true

Does someone see a mistake there??!? I really don't know what else to do.    Thanks!

You need to call File.Update() method.

For example,

file = element.Files.AddNew(strURL, "Web Address");
file.Update();

Hope this helps.
