Find in Diagrams broken for relations in search

[Geert Bellekens]

The Show in Diagrams functionality doesn't seem to be working when used on a relation that was returned as a search result.

Steps to reproduce
- define following search (or something similar based on t_connector)

Code: [Select]

select c.ea_guid as CLASSGUID, c.Connector_Type as ClassType, isnull(c.name,source.name + '.' + target.name) as Name, source.Name as 'Class Name',package.name as 'Package Name' ,package_p1.name as 'Package level -1',package_p2.name as 'Package level -2',package_p3.name as 'Package level -3'
from t_connector as c
join t_object as source on (c.Start_Object_ID = source.Object_ID)
join t_object as target on (c.End_Object_ID = target.Object_ID)
join t_package as package on (source.package_id = package.package_id)
left join t_package as package_p1 on (package_p1.package_id = package.parent_id)
left join t_package as package_p2 on (package_p2.package_id = package_p1.parent_id)
left join t_package as package_p3 on (package_p3.package_id = package_p2.parent_id)
where c.Notes like '%<Search Term>%'- run search and make sure you have some results
- right click on one of the results
- choose "Find in Diagrams"
- notice that EA takes a very long time to process the request, and then comes up with a huge list of diagrams that have nothing to do with the selected relation in question.

I'm actually surprised that you are getting the option of find in diagrams for connectors.  That functionality only exists for objects.

[Geert Bellekens]

Yes, and obviously it doesn't work for relations.
Can't be too hard to add can it?
