BUG: Get All Latest not working with security
« on: November 05, 2009, 06:06:54 pm »
I have an issue when trying to do a "get All Latest" on my model.
We are using the EA security with the option "require user lock to edit" and we have a shared common model controlled in TFS.
When I try to do a "get All Latest" function I get an error saying that there are elements that are still locked by users.
That statement is true, but the locks are outside of my controlled packages, so it shouldn't matter.
I can do a get latest of each and every package manually, but I can't use the convenient "Get All Latest".
Sigh, why is this so difficult to get right? :'(

get all latest ( as far as EA concerns) updates (potentialy) all the model, so you should have all of it locked to you.

Actually no, GetAllLatest will only be able to update model elements that are controlled.
I have whole root models that are not controlled (next to root models that are controlled), so they can never be impacted by a GetAllLatest.
