GetPackageByPath - not available?

[Paolo F Cantoni]

Hi All,

Am I correct in asserting that there is no Automation Interface mechanism to GetPackageByPath?

GetPackageByID and by GetPackageByGUID exist, but there is no way to find a package by its named path (for example: Model::View::Parent::Self)

Similarly, there's no equivalent get Element yes?

TIA,
Paolo

Paolo,

See Package.FindObject(string).
http://www.sparxsystems.com/uml_tool_guide/sdk_for_enterprise_architect/package_2.html

The path passed to this function is relative to the package that you are calling from.  Can specify the path to a package, element, attribute or operation.

Thanks Aaron,

I thought I'd come across it last week, but I couldn't find it again.

Since it's relative, if I want to make it "absolute" I need to be at the top of the tree, yes?
