Title: Running different versions of Sparx EA against the same repository
Post by: Modesto Vega on November 08, 2019, 03:56:06 am

We have Sparx EA running on several machines connecting to a common repository and want to incrementally upgrade these machines to a newer version of Sparx EA. Are there any known issues running different versions of Sparx EA  - e.g., v13, v14 and v15 - against the same repository?

Hi

There are no issues as far as I am aware, however ensure that all MDGs enabled in version 13 are present in the Perspective(s) used by EA users in EA version 14 and version 15

Ideally, users of versions 14 and versions 15 should use the same Perspective(s)

If you use SysML you get several issues. Mainly the rendering of BDD and IBD, manly regarding handing of compartment change each version. So if you make those diagrams looking nice for Vx those are unusable for Vy and vice versa.
