OpenFile returns false

[Karol]

I've quite basic question concerning Enterprise Architect's automation interface. Sometimes when I call OpenFile method of the Repository object I receive false value as a result. I guess, that it means, that the interface failed to open repository. My question is how can I check a reason of the failure. Are there same error logs? I use java version of the interface. I've tried with version 7.1 and 8.0 of the interface. I'll be grateful for help or any hint.

Try Repository.GetLastError ()

Unfortunately, in my case GetLastError method returns an empty string each time. Any other idea?

Yes. Ask Dr. Sparx.

I've been getting intermittant "false" return values from EA 8 (on 64 bit Windows 7), but (as I didn't kill the app), it marches merrily along and runs happily afterwards. The same program running with EA 7.5 (on 32 bit XP) against the same repository did not get "false" returns ever, unless I actually messed up the connect string.

I will investigate further, and submit a ticket.
