Title: ReferenceData in MDG?
Post by: carolin.boeckler on June 17, 2020, 07:30:10 pm

Hi

I have a Question to the MDG Technology: Is it possible to Import the Reference Data to a MDG Technology.
Many years before, I had an AddIn. Through this it was possible to insert reference data to a Special EA model. But it is really complicated. So I hope it is also possible to insert the reference data to the MDG Technology.

LG, Caro

I don't think so. Referece data are purely EA internal things. You need to fall back to your addin. IIRC it's not that complicated.

Code: [Select]

xmlres = Respository.CustomCommand("Repository", "ImportRefData", sXML);

Hello Carolin,

Recent versions allow you to upload reference data to RAS (https://www.sparxsystems.com/enterprise_architect_user_guide/15.1/model_repository/import_asset.html). You can also share reference data (https://sparxsystems.com/enterprise_architect_user_guide/15.1/model_repository/sharedrepositoryrefdata.html) between repositories.
I haven't used either of these in a production setting, but they might be worth a look.

HTH,
