Title: Toolbox profiles ---> What am I doing wrong???????
Post by: Sygnus on October 24, 2008, 05:25:13 am: Hi there.

I'm trying to build a MDG Tech from some profiles, and right when I tgought I was down to the easiest part, I found myself unable to create a Toolbox profile that works!!!

I started with the very basic example from the manual, and then did some more cut-down, to achieve the XML profile below, edited the mts file to include it as the toolbox, but no toolbox appears when I select the Tech name on the more tools menu.

Code: [Select]
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="windows-1252"?> <UMLProfile profiletype="uml2"> <Documentation id="68A6F949-2" name="ProjectToolbox" version="1.0" alias="Project" notes="Alias=Project;
Notes=Elements for creating Project Machines;"/> <Content> <Stereotypes> <Stereotype name="GDN_Connectors" alias="Connectors" notes="Connectors" cx="133" cy="70" bgcolor="-1" fontcolor="-1" bordercolor="-1" borderwidth="-1" hideicon="0"> <AppliesTo> <Apply type="ToolboxPage "/> </AppliesTo> <TaggedValues> <Tag name="UML::Package" type="int" description="" unit="" values="" default=""/> </TaggedValues> </Stereotype> </Stereotypes> <TaggedValueTypes/> </Content> <Options> <Option name="
Notes" value="Elements for creating Project Machines"/> </Options> </UMLProfile>
I checked the tech xml file, and the toolbox is there, but still nothing shows!

Below is the last chunk from the mdg xml

Code: [Select]
<UIToolboxes><UMLProfile profiletype="uml2"> <Documentation id="68A6F949-2" name="ProjectToolbox" version="1.0" alias="Project" notes="Alias=Project;
Notes=Elements for creating Project Machines;"/> <Content> <Stereotypes> <Stereotype name="GDN_Connectors" alias="Connectors" notes="Connectors" cx="133" cy="70" bgcolor="-1" fontcolor="-1" bordercolor="-1" borderwidth="-1" hideicon="0"> <AppliesTo> <Apply type="ToolboxPage "/> </AppliesTo> <TaggedValues> <Tag name="UML::Package" type="" description="" unit="" values="" default=""/> </TaggedValues> </Stereotype> </Stereotypes> <TaggedValueTypes/> </Content> <Options> <Option name="
Notes" value="Elements for creating Project Machines"/> </Options> </UMLProfile> </UIToolboxes></MDG.Technology>

It might be caused by the trailing blank in the metaclass name:
Code: [Select]
<AppliesTo> <Apply type="ToolboxPage[highlight] [/highlight]"/> </AppliesTo>

Post by: Sygnus on October 24, 2008, 10:13:07 pm: Right on!!

Thanks!!!!

Ctrl+C + Ctrl+V just to make sure I would not screw things up, and there goes an afternoon...

Glad we could help.

One more, and this should be easy: how do I choose the order in which the pages will be shown?

Thanks again,
