How to get the ElementID of the Class of an Object

[ThierryL]

Hello !

I have a DiagramObject (in a sequence diagram) and I want to get the ElementId of the Class of this DiagramObject.

ObjectDiagram.ElementId returns the Id of the instance and it's not this that I want, but the Id of the Class of the instance.

Thank you for your help !

Best regards,
Thierry

Once you have the Instance Element, you can get the ID of the class that it references from Element.ClassifierID.  For example:

Code: [Select]

diagramobject = [reference to DiagramObject from your sequence diagram]
theInstance = Repository.GetElementByID( diagramobject.ElementID );
if ( theInstance.Type == "Object" || theInstance.Type == "Sequence" )
{
      if ( theInstance.ClassifierID != 0 )
      {
            theClass = Repository.GetElementByID( theInstance.ClassifierID );
      }
}
