Recursion in RTF reports
« on: November 12, 2008, 08:17:59 am »


I have an RTF template that looks something like

[highlight]package>
element>
[/highlight]Name: {Element.Name}
[highlight]connector>
target>
element>
<element
<target
<connector
child elements>
<child elements
<element
<package[/highlight]

Classes in my package, C, have connections to classes in another package, B.  The generated report lists the names of both my classes (due to package>
element>...) AND also the classes that they are connected to (due to the placeholder
connector>
taget>
element>
<element)

However, the classes in package B have connections to classes in yet another package, A, and I had hoped/expected that the placeholder would have made the classes in package A to be listed in the generated report also, but they are not. Instead, some of the "yellow" template tags are included in the report.

Perhaps I have misunderstood the concept of placeholders and recursion...?

I would be really grateful for a comment that indicates if this is something that should work according to my expectations or not, and if so, when it will be implemented.

Thanks
