MDG Technology: Where's the link to the toolbox?

[gfranz]

Hello,

when I create a diagram in a EAP file, then there must be also a link to the toolboxes (or to the diagram definition in the MDG Technology) of this diagram in the database. But I cannot find it in the DB schema.

I have a self generated MDG Technology and have to take care, that the link to the toolboxes will not get lost after changes to the MDG Technology.

Thanks
Guido

The fully qualified diagram type (diagram profile name plus custom diagram type name) is stored in the diagrams table in the database and EA uses this to find out from the technology the correct toolbox to display. As long as your diagram profile name and custom diagram type name in your technology don't change, you'll be OK.

Thanks for the answer!

Perhaps you can also direct me to the DB table and column, where this info is stored? I cannot find it in t_diagram. I can only see column Diagram_Type with a value of Custom for diagram types from my MDG Technology.

You have to look closer  

T_Diagram.StyleEx contains a lot of key/value pairs.
On my example one of them is:
"MDGDgm=Extended::User Interface;"
and another
"ProfileData=;"

these are probably the keys you are looking for.
