Title: Set attribute initial value on Transformation
Post by: da_Burp on June 20, 2007, 10:53:47 pm

On a model transformation i;m generating ID's for classes, and i would like to set the initial value of that id to -1. But it seems like I can not set the 'initial' value of an attribute on transformation of a model. I can access all the other fields like name, notes, alias etc.. But why on earth can't I set the initial field?

Am I just using the wrong name(initial)? Or is it, for some odd reason, simple not possible to do so?

You're using the wrong name, you need to use default.

See http://www.sparxsystems.com.au/EAUserGuide/index.html?transformingobjects.htm.
