a automated solution would be nice....
We created a tool to do this via the automation interface, but is't not that simple  :-/
Perhaps post it as a suggestion !

Automation Interface, Add-Ins and Tools / Re: Version Control Configuration

We use the apply/release User Lock functionality in the corporate version. I can't find a way to lock and edit element via the automation interface.... (only via the dirty way to edit the database directly)

ahum...

I'm using it and it works fine.

If you add elements, you have to refresh the package first !

Open the EAP file in MS Access and you can find the fields you have to use.
It's Q&D but it's possible

Automation Interface, Add-Ins and Tools / problem DDL generation on tables insered via add-i

« on: February 23, 2005, 04:13:41 am »

I'm having a problem on generation DDL when i import the datatables via a Add-in


my code to insert a table in EA
---

eaElement = col.Addnew("TableX","Class")
eaElement.stereotype = "table"
eaElement.Gentype = "SQL Server 2000"
eaElement.Update

....
add fieds....
....

eaElement.Update


When I check the EA database on table t_object, field 'PDATA2' has also to be set to 'SQL Server 2000' to have correcr DDL generation, but it's not done via the Add-in inteface.
When I open the table element in theEA interface and close it agian, this value is set in the EA database and the DDL generation works fine... :-/

How can I set this 'PDATA2' field via the add-in interface ?

Thanks!

Nick,

You should try this using the latest version. Up from EA 4.5 you have to change your project references to the  Interop.EA.dll from EA and then it works fine. You can find this file on C:\Program Files\Sparx Systems\EA\Interop.EA.dll

The Q&D way is to change the values in de datafile (you can open EA as a Access MDB and then change de values)

using 'object' as return type doesn't fix the problem. You should use the  Interop.EA.dll from EA and then it works fine !

The likely reason for this error is that they have improved the interface to .net, and are now providing a strongly typed assembly: Interop.EA.dll.

You should de-reference EA in your VS project, and reference Interop.EA.dll from \program files\sparx systems\ea.

The interop file you compile with should also be included with your installations.

Automation Interface, Add-Ins and Tools / Error Using .NET Add-ins

« on: October 08, 2004, 02:24:20 am »

There is no variant type in .NET

When I create an add-in in VB.NET I have to implement the interface EA_GetMenuItems(....) as Variant in a COM class

Until version 4.10.737 I used string() as returntype. In version 4.10.738 it does no longer work.

Any suggestions to fix this problem???

Automation Interface, Add-Ins and Tools / NOT NULL Columns in Data Model

« on: December 08, 2004, 06:57:11 am »

I want to use the flags'NOT NULL' and 'Unique' to convert <Table> columns to <class> attributes and associations.

Where can I find these flags in the automation model?
