Information items conveyed
« on: February 27, 2014, 06:48:03 am »
Hi all,


I've got some information flows which all convey a single class.
I'd like to be able to locate all these connectors (ie the reverse of Find Items Conveyed), but I can't find how. It's not part of the regular connector properties and it doesn't seem to be stored in t_connector, t_connectortags, t_connectorconstraints, t_diagramlinks or t_object.

Any clues?

Cheers,


/Uffe

Hi Uffe,

search for 'conveyed' items. There are some threads. It's in t_xref.

If you are not successful ask me. I have a SQL to solve this problem. As far as I remember there is also an example in Thomas book (InsideEA).

Thanks!

I couldn't find anything by either forum search mechanism so for future reference, here's a simple query to find all connectors which convey a particular element:
Code: [Select]
select t_connector.*
from t_connector, t_xref
where t_connector.ea_guid = t_xref.Client
and t_xref.Description like '%<element guid>%'

Cheers,

Just for the EAP users: use * instead of %
