Is it possible to interrogate a "live" Profile from a script?

[Paolo F Cantoni]

Again, I suspect I know the answer, but I thought I'd check first.

I'm interested in iterating through the list of stereotypes in a given profile (so that I can automagically synchronize them with Repository.SynchProfile).

Repository.SynchProfile doesn't synchronize the profile, it synchronizes a Profile Item (as per Help system) - so why not name it SynchProfileItem?  Just a thought...

It would be good if Repository.SynchProfile(<Profilename>, "*") would automatically synchronize all the stereotypes in the profile, but...

Only by reading the xml file content I'm afraid.

Thanks Geert,
 as I suspected...

Out of interest, have you done it?

Only to get the shapescripts, and the scripts IIRC.
I don't think I ever managed to read MDG's stored in the model though.

Thanks, Geert,

I've since realised I need only those currently in use in the specific repository, so I'll need to use a different mechanism (probably get a collection by query) and process that.  Any given repository will likely have only a small proportion of the complete set of metatypes we could use.
