Thanks @Geert, I'll take a look.

And i take it that this has had a good success rate?

How do you load in the SQL queries? (Sorry, i am a bit of a newb)

Many thanks

Hi @Qwerty,

Thanks for that, so i will take it that currently OCL is a no go in EA.

In your experience of writting scripting, where was this is EA? and could this be used as a standard or did it have to be modified with each check?

We are really looking for some kind of validsating module we can create to check for mistakes and human error.

Many thanks in advance

Uml Process / Model Validation - OCL? + Solution

« on: October 01, 2018, 10:45:36 pm »

Hi All,

Problem: My team and I currently create data models, that can have a number of classes and attributes, which we then export from EA to Eclipse in order to produce schema. Our issue is that we need to check our data models which can be created manually or by import for things such as trailing and/or leading spaces(or some customised checker, we can configure). So that we do not have these carried through into our schema.

Research: I have browsed various disucssion boards and examples saying that you can produce an 'Add-in' for EA to include things like OCL. I have also seen comments denying this and saying you have to code in these rules.

Ask: Can someone please confirm or deny the use of OCL in EA and tell me the best way we can use a module or set of scripting to check multiple models from a base principle please ? If this is not possible, give a solution to how this validation of data models can be done.

Many thanks in advance

Many thanks

Hi Nabil

see the thing is, I'm trying to avoid manually typing them in, so I don't get any errors and want to upload them from a source. Is there a good way to do this ?

As I say, I'm quite new to this, so as much help as possible needed.

Hi Geert, thanks for that.

So where I can see 'Firstname' etc, can I replace these with entries from a .csv file ? then just check the lot?

Many thanks

Hi All,

Bit of a noob to EA here.

What I'm looking to do is run a lookup against elements in my class models, from an imported list of names. This is due to spelling errors and trailing space issues creeping in during the current process. This will ultimately help me with our quality assurance.

I did try to raise this on StackedOverflow, but I got some angry child telling me just to do some programming with know real instructions or help.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
