Title: Adding local path entries via API
Post by: Marty Burns on January 15, 2013, 03:12:35 am

We have an application that needs a local path entry (the “Settings\Local Directories and Paths”). We want to reference this path in notes fields in the model. This allows us to "localize" a repository to a particular developers desktop allowing the repository to be otherwise shared.

Can we add an etry to this via the API?

Thanks,
Marty

Not sure what you want to add where. The paths are stored in a file in %APPDATA%/Sparx... and you can manipulate it at will.

Thanks. So basically the file paths.txt needs to be edited, right.

Yes. Not sure whether EA reads that file only once at start (I guess so) or each time a path is read by EA.
