Shape Script - Query Shape if it has Associates Files

[Paul Vermette]

Hey,

I am trying to create a decoration for an element using Shape Script. I want to create a visual indicator for an element "if" is has any "Associated Files" ( https://sparxsystems.com/enterprise_architect_user_guide/14.0/modeling_tools/associatedfiles.html ).

I didn't see any specific attributes related to this. Is there a specific property name I can use or something?

I guess you need an add-in for that, implement it and call EXEC_ADD_IN (I never remember the underlines/EA-prefixes) from within the script.

P.S. It's

Code: [Select]

hasproperty('addin:myAddIn,function','parameter') Check the help for hasproperty.
EXEC_ADD_IN is for this dreaded transformation script language.

I am just using the MDG builder with no code.... ugh...

Not sure if Geert's EA-Addin tool can help here (where you can use internal EA scripts to be called like an add-in).

Not really, it requires an add-in function to be called, and i didn't expose a general "call a script function" method in the add-in.
