Accessing options

[gfranz]

Hello,

currently I cannot find the object which corresponds to the -> Tools -> Options window in EA. How can I set this options in a script?

Thanks

Hello,

in my opinion the options are stored in the registry:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Sparx System\EA400\EA

Therefore the options are stored for a user.

I don't know an EA API to manipulate all the options stored.

Best regards,

Helmut

Thanks a lot, Helmut

Do you also know, when EA reads this options? Everytime an internal methods accesses this information? I can change them before calling a method, but when EA does not read them again, it will have no effect.

The registry is only read once on startup (for the few but important options I ever checked). To make changes work you need to restart EA. It would probably be nice to see an API call ReloadOptions.
