Import several XMI files at once

[Guillaume]

Hi

Is there any script or plug-in available that makes it possible to import a selection of XMI files into the model within the selected package from the Project Browser?
A customer needs to import dozens of XMI within an EA project, so they're looking for a solution preventing from executing it once every file.

thanks

You can run a script that calls ImportPackageXMI for all files. It should be a task for an hour or so.

Thanks for the info. I got it to work and I'm looking at improving it.
I'd like to set a collection variable to let the user add as many XML files as needed.
I found from EA script samples the following object :
dim theDictionary
set theDictionary = CreateObject( "Scripting.Dictionary" )
theDictionary.Add "a", "Alpha"

As I don't need the key is there a simpler "array" like object to use in VBScript?

Thanks

Maybe you'll get an answer here, but that's better asked at StackOverflow.

Thanks, I found what I was looking for :

Set fileList = CreateObject("System.Collections.ArrayList")

I will shortly post an article on the community site to publish my script once it's done.

The article has been submitted on the Sparx community site (should be available soon), and published here as well :

This script can be improved, but so far it's been working well.
