Transformations and the Automation Interface
« on: March 26, 2010, 10:55:19 pm »
I'm trying to build message models from a logical data model.
When I execute a trasformation into XSD from my UML model, I get a package containing stereotyped classes, which is great.
IF I then update the orignial, and add an attribute then repeat the transform, the correct classes in the target model are synched up, and the new attribute added.
Therefore, I suspect that EA is maintaining dome link between the source and target classes.
Can anyone tell me where this link is stored, and how I might access it through the automation interface (or frankly just through the DB)

Cheers
Al

Transformation records are kept in t_xref; Type="Transformation";  Name =<name of element>
