Title: Reimport versus synchronizing
Post by: TorbenKoch on February 27, 2002, 07:27:03 am

Hi,

The c++ code generation and synchronization features are nice, but I would really, really very much like to have a reimport feature also, since the synchronize does not update the diagram properly. It leaves behind attributes which does not longer exist in the code, and if a class has been reparented this is not updated in the diagram.

Thanks for listening!

Hello,

The code generation side has an option to achieve what I think you are after.  If you bring up the 'Generate Code' screen for an individual class and click on the 'Advanced' button, now make sure the 'Replace (overwrite) existing source file' is selected.  The next time you generate the code the existing source code is completely overwritten.

As for reimport then is no such option, we will look at including one in a future version.  Thanks for the feedback.
