Adding Tagged Value to Connection

[jonassam]

Hi!
I try to add a Tagged Value to a connection using the automation interface from a C# application to no success. I am able to add it to other elements, though not all, with Connectors being the most urgent. The lines of code I used are:
  EA.ConnectorTag tv = connector.TaggedValues.AddNew("Status", regStatus);
  tv.Update();
  connector.TaggedValues.Refresh(); 

I have also seen someone suggesting the following approach, which does not work neither:
  EA.ConnectorTag tv = connector.TaggedValues.AddNew("Status", "String");
  tv.Value = regStatus;
  tv.Update();
  connector.TaggedValues.Refresh(); 

I am able to set a Tagged Value on an element using the following construct:
  (element.TaggedValues.AddNew("Status", regStatus) as EA.TaggedValue).Update();
  element.TaggedValues.Refresh();

So I figure I have understood the way this is supposed to be done… But then, for Connections I just cannot get it to work. Anyone has any ideas?

Best regards,
Jonas

Jonas,

There is no need to call the Refresh() method, unless you want to iterate of the collection again, and you want to see the new member.

When I add a tagged value I always start with only a name

Code: [Select]

var tv = connector.TaggedValues.AddNew("tagName", "");
tv.Value = "tagValue";
tv.Update();
I never had any issues doing it like that.

It's also a good idea to state the EA version you're using.
