UML Profile Example

[Dima]

Anyone has.eap file with basic UML profile that creates custom Toolbox?

I'm trying to follow the help about how to build the toolbox - but I can't get any elements to show up in the new custom toolbox...

Are you able to enable your MDG technology? Is it active? As well typos in the toolbox elements' attributes are a frequent source of (silent) errors.

I have a profile with working toolboxes, but coming with an AddIn etc. Its pretty complex, and may not serve well as a beginners sample exercise.
If you'd like to have it though, leave your eMail adress in my message box, and I'll hand it over to you.

I'm not even creating MDG. As I understand I have to create a package and diagrams, with help of Profile toolbox and Save Diagram as Profile. Then import it and bam! - the toolbox must show up. Am I not understanding the process right?

Dima,

IMHO using a generated .mts file to provide UML profiles and the associated toolboxes and diagrams is the way of choice. AFAIK using the resources view for import of profiles isn't even recommended by Sparx anymore.

I'll send you the stuff I have from home today or tomorrow, please be a bit patient about it. Meanwhile you may have a look here, how to use a .mts to provide a toolbox profile:
