Version Control - Inconsistent diagrams

[LeeBaker]

Hi,

I would like some assistance with regard to version control of a model.

We have a team of 4 engineers working on a model which we have under version control.  The problem we have is many diagrams within the model are different for each engineer (and I mean drastically different).  Even when we perform Package Control -> Get Latest, the diagram obtained is still not the latest.

It appears the only way to ensure the latest is obtained is to create a new model and re-import everything from the configuration tool.

Any assistance as to why each engineer can "get the latest" but see a completely different diagram (when their settings are identical) would be appreciated.

thanks
Lee

If you are seeing differences in sequence diagrams this is due to the fact that real classes were used instead of instances (hidden somewhere in the documentation). You need to convert all classes to instances from preferable a single modeler and later synch from all users.

Thanks for the response...

Bearing in mind we have approx 40+ diagrams, is there a quick and simple way of acheiving this i.e. script or sql backend...

Thanks

Not really. Open each single diagram and for each class issue Convert to Instance from the context menu. Automation would be possible but is too costly for such a (small) amount. For the 40 diagrams you should be done in 2 hours or so. It's just tedious.
