Realisation is not legal for Class --> Interface

[Adrien_]

Hello,

I have a problem when trying to add a new realization connector between a class and an interface.

I absolutely can't understand where the problem is:

Code: [Select]

function implementsInterface(classe /* : EA.Element */, interface /* : EA.Element */){
      var connector as EA.Connector;
      if(classe != null && interface != null){
            Session.Output("Interface name: " + interface.Name + ", type:" + interface.Type + "\nClass name: " +  classe.Name + ", type: " + classe.Type);
            connector = classe.Connectors.AddNew("", "Realization");
            connector.SupplierID = interface.ElementID;
            connector.Direction = "Source -> Destination";
            connector.Update();
            classe.Connectors.Refresh();
            interface.Connectors.Refresh();
      }
      return connector;
}

Gives :

Interface name: testDao, type:Interface      
Class name: testDaoImpl, type: Class      
util.interfaces error: Realisation is not legal for Class --> Interface, Line:60      

I have no problem if I try to add an Association instead, and it shows in my model afterwards.

Does anyone have an idea?

Thanks

I get the same error in V12 and consider that a bug. Manually you can create that connector. In V11 I don't have this issue!

Wasn't that fixed in one of the latest versions?
I seem to remember something like that.

What happens if you turn "strict connector syntax" off?

In any case I would report it as a bug because Realization IS a legal relationship between Class and Interface.

I had an ancient version of EA 12 so I tried upgrading but still the same problem.

It works when turning "strict connector syntax" off, thanks!

Please remember to send a bug report...
