Set connector.Direction

[Lilleberg]

Hi!

I have tried to set the value of the connector.Direction to "Source -> Destination" without any success. The connector.Stereotypes are "send" or "Received by" in these cases.

It might be a bug. Here's my code:

EA.Connector connector = null;
connector = m_Repository.GetConnectorByID(dLink.ConnectorID);

if (connector.Stereotype.ToString() == "Sends" || connector.Stereotype.ToString() == "Received by")
{
  connector.Direction = "Source -> Destination";

  if (!connector.Update())
  {
       MessageBox.Show("Error thrown during the update of the  Connector in the function CreateDirectionToConnectors: " + connector.GetLastError().ToString(), "Error", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Error);
  }
}


Please let me know if the is a bug or not.
Thanks!
/Johannes

Try updating the connector before you query the stereotype. I suspect without proof that the error is happening before you even attempt to assign the direction.
