General Board / Creating model elements from outside EA

« on: February 09, 2023, 02:36:42 am »

Hello!

I am working with a SysML model and I want to create a few things in the model from outside EA. It's mostly Values that I want to create for already existing blocks in the model. The Values should be connected to a ValueType and have a Default Value.

Now I'm thinking about, what is the best way to this. As I already work a lot with a XML-Export of said SysML model, I was thinking about editing and adding the values in the XML file and import it afterwards. The other option I was wondering about is if EA has a programming interface that can import data and create model elements.

Does someone maybe have already done something like that or can help me getting started with this?
I'd love to hear all the advice and feedback I can get as I didn't really manage to find anything yet on how to facilitate this.

Thank you!
Thomas

General Board / Part Association relationship between Constraint Blocks

« on: February 06, 2023, 08:30:39 pm »

Hello!
I am currently working on a project with EA 16, where I am trying to model a complex constraint relationship. For simplicity, I started with a simplified model that contains a "Constraint Context" block, which is connected to a Constraint Block "Constaint1" as a Part Association. "Constaint1" should be composed of two subordinate Constraint blocks "Constraint 1.1" and "Constraint1.2". In the end, the structure resembles the last image in the following entry of the User Guide: https://sparxsystems.com/enterprise_architect_user_guide/16.1/modeling_languages/sysml_constraintblock_from_equation.html

Now, when I try to draw Part Association relationships between the Constraint blocks, the following error message appears: "The requested connection is not UML compliant".
What is the reason for this and is there perhaps another way to connect Constraint blocks?

Thank you for your help!
