Title: GenerateDiagramFromScenario
Post by: Jeremie on July 28, 2015, 09:14:11 pm

Hi everyone,

Quick question: i'm using EA version 10 and try to generate a sequence diagram from scenario using c#

Code: [Select]

GenerateDiagramFromScenario(usecase.ElementGUID, EnumScenarioDiagramType.sdSequence, 0);

But it throws a NotImplementedException
So my question is: can i do that with my actual version of EA or do i have to update to EA 11 or 12 ?

Thanks,
Jeremie.

It's in the help since (at least) 9.3. So: report a bug. Looks like a method that's not widely used.

Hi,

It might be something different.
If you upgraded recently you might just use the wrong Interop.EA of maybe EA9 (though intellisence shouldn't work then)...
(In 12 at least it works fine - just tested it)

But qwerty is right, if you use the right version of EA's dll and you get this Exception it seems to be a bug.

Regards,
Eric

Thanks for your answers

I reported the bug since i'm using the right version of Interop EA dll
By chance is there another way to generate a sequence diagram from a scenario ?

As commented on SO: No, except using the manual function in the GUI.

P.S. Have you tried different diagram types (AD instead of SD)? I noticed when trying SD (manually) the diagram is empty.

Same thing, NotImplementedException

I also had the blank diagram but i thought the method was misplaced in the script

Just contact Sparx support directly via (or use the bug report link bottom right of this page). At least you'll get a bug reported. In the best case they come up with a work around.

EDIT: I used an outdated GenerateDiagram method
Now i can generate activity diagrams but still blank for sequence

Probably for the same reason as the manual creation does not do anything for SD....
