Trace Element Usage Between Projects
« on: October 31, 2012, 11:36:07 pm »
Hello,
Does any version of Sparx EA provide the means to trace the usage of a Element (ie Actor called Broker User) that is created in one project and reused in other projects?

What we are wondering if there is the capability to run a report across projects to see if a specific element is used and where in case we decide to make a change or see where a changed element could affect multiple designs.

Thanks,
Bob Krause

If you mean project=repository then no. You can export t_object from all repositories and make an xref over the ea_guid column which happens to be the same over all repositories if the according element was moved via version control or direct XMI im-/export.
