Automation Interface, Add-Ins and Tools / Re: Valid XMIType values for Project.ExportPackage

« on: February 09, 2005, 11:06:13 pm »

Thank you Ben for your answer!
Now knowing that trial and error approaches will never succeed I'm curious about your next release(s)  

The automation support of XMI 1.2 will be very helpfull for us: we are using AndroMDA (http://AndroMDA.org) for our development of a J2EE app. Since we are using it on calling an ANT task, with an additional EA-Export-ANT-Task we won't need any manual export on EA side, which would be very comfortable

Jens

I guess some trial and error might get you a usable value.

Thanks for that suggestion but that was what I already tried in a couple of hours before I posted my question here in the forum: it's not any value between 0 and 200, and some hex values/bits 0x01, 0x02 etc. also did not work

I'm currently looking to get  the username/password of my license from my IT-department to be able to write a request/question as authenitcated user  

When I get new informations I'll post is here!

Thanks for your comforts

Maybe a polite email to [email protected] requesting the appropriate enums, and pointing out that their documentation is incomplete ?

I already send (two) emails with no response...

Half a year ago I had some questions/bug submits to sparxsystems (regarding XMI export) which were answered very fast and helpfull!!

I thought I was a little bit helpfull to sparx on comitting bugs, but and could expect any answer? Maybe it's a pronlem that I can' t authenticate myself with the userid, since my company/IT-department does not share such information with their dump users,  but  that's my problem and I'm already working on it (since several days...)

this is a user forum, not a Sparx helpline

But such information could be of interrest for other users, since this forum topic is called Automation Interface... and the documentation (at that chapter) is missing some informations.

Thanks for your help
Jens

If anyone from Sparxsystems is reading this forum/message why do I not get a answer??

I thought this is a very easy question with a real short answer, since at least anywhere in the code of EA should the mapping of long values to XMI types be defined!!??

I'm realy disappointed!

Automation Interface, Add-Ins and Tools / Valid XMIType values for Project.ExportPackageXMI?

« on: January 20, 2005, 07:11:36 am »

I'm trying to export the model in XMI with the automation interface(s) (EA  4.50 build 7.40).

I'm able to load a model with the Repository interface. I also get access to the Project interface where I can use the method ExportPackageXMI. But this method requires as one parameter XMIType of type long. No valid values are defined in the help file ??!! I need at number for XMI 1.2 ...

Has anybody an Idea??

Thanks in advance
Jens

Hi edmondme,

Id did no fully understand your questions, but I'll try to help  (it's my first post here
I'm using AndroMDA together with EA since a half year: it's working fine for now (after sailing around some problems du to the lack of documentation of AndroMDA and the growing support of XMI 1.2 in EA).
FYI: Yesterday I switched to AndroMDA 3.0M3 (spring-cartridge with EJB and hibernate support and java-cartdridge) before using AndroMDA 2.1/3.0M1/M2 (hibernate cartridge).

Now your questions:
>>1) It doesn't overwrite the java files that I generate
Maybe you have to add the attribute lastModifiedCheck="false" to your anttask call (if you are using ant)

>>2) I don't know how to change the package specification
AndroMDA/XMI takes the packages you define in the ProjectView of EA ??! Is that your question?

Regards,
Jens
