EA Best Practices for sharing Project settings
« on: August 10, 2010, 06:09:02 am »
Hello,

Our group is interested in sharing Project level settings, such as Option settings from the Tools > Options dialog.  Our specific need, is to share Source Code Engineering options, such as Collection Classes for various programming languages.

Other than creating snapshots of screens, and having each team member edit these options by hand, are there any other methods for sharing this data? The EA documentation does not recommend version controlling/sharing the .eap file, and the other alternative I've studied is Replication process using the Design Master.  

Any ideas would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Paul Krcma

Paul,

I'm pretty sure most of the options are local to the user, and thus not stored in the eap file.
You might be able to create a reg file that sets the options to the company standard.
I would start looking here: "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Sparx Systems\EA400\EA\OPTIONS"
