Setting/changing default language for an entire database

[MrSnow]

Hi all,

I am working on an EA database and through "Configure -> Reference Data -> Settings -> Code Engineering Types" I have added a JSON language to be able to add JSON types from the dropdown menu. I wish to change the default language for all packages and diagrams within the top level package.

I am able to change the individual package language to JSON by going into "Element Properties" and Advanced->Language. But for the JSON language this is not applied to the entire database for all users accessing the database. This means that everyone using the database needs to create a JSON language and manually add it to all packages.

Does anyone have a smooth solution or any experience with this?

Maybe my formulation of the question was a bit vague.

I do not wish to reset the Source Language, that gives me Java. I would like to set a new one for the entire database so that all other users of that database also gets the effect of my change. Not sure if I'm making completely sense?

In the "Reset Source Language" you can replace whatever language you were using (e.g. Java) by another language (e.g. C#, <none>, ..)

So if you have added JSON as a code engineering language you should be able to replace Java by JSON for all elements in a package (and sub-packages if you check the checkbox)

Ah, there you go. Apparently it didn't work for the Model, but it actually applies for all users. Thanks Geert! :-)
