Title: How to create a new element using the JAVA API?
Post by: ddiazguerra on December 27, 2012, 10:54:58 pm

Please, I can't create a new element using the JAVA API.

At least I need to obtain a new GUID in order to make the insert in BBDD or import CSV file.

Thanks in advance.

You have to add it in a collection such as
Package.Element.AddNew()  or Element.Element.AddNew()

Thanks for you reply, but unfortunately in JAVA seem not to exist that method in Element Object.

Best regards.

I found the answer, thanks for the clue.

org.sparx.Package paqDiego = null;
paqDiego = repositoryEA.GetModels().GetByName("Model name");
paqDiego = paqDiego.GetPackages().GetByName("package name 1"); (many times)
            
Collection cElements = paqDiego.GetElements();
cElements.AddNew("Element Diego", "Requirement");


Best regards
