Uml Process / Re: Migration RSA --> EA

« on: December 10, 2007, 01:07:13 pm »

Hello David,
I found two problems when I import from an EMX file

1- The Z-order is not respected : hopefully I could solve that with a LIFO stack(using an automation routine)  because the z-order was inversed

2- The most important problem is that notes are missing in the diagrams. I looked in the emx file, and it contains the notes information. Here also I’m thinking to write an automation routine but it wouldn’t be that easy because the notes are linked to associations or/and objects and also I have to define their positions, height and width in diagrams.

Automation Interface, Add-Ins and Tools / Element Keywords

« on: December 18, 2007, 12:59:27 pm »

hello

 A simple question... Can we access to an element's keywords by automation?
What I try to do is to research an element (here a package) with a specified keyword:

Code: [Select]



foreach (EA.Element item in repository.GetElementsByQuery("Extended", "somekeywords"))
{
if ((item.Type == "Package") && (item.keywords =="somekeywords"))
 {
Package aPackage = repository.GetPackageByGuid(item.ElementGUID);
listPackage.Add(new EAPAckage(aPackage));

  }
}

"item.keywords" doesn't exist. (it works well with Alias but i use Alias for other things)
Also I can't cast an element to a package so I’m obliged to do a "second research" by guid to get the package.
There is another way to do that?
i'm using C#
thanks

Automation Interface, Add-Ins and Tools / External Requirement

« on: December 14, 2007, 02:38:02 pm »

Hello ,

 i have external element requirements, when i try to do something like this :

Code: [Select]


EA.Element oElem = Repository.GetElementByID(100);
foreach (EA.Requirement req in oElem.Requirements)
{
MessageBox.Show(req.Name);
}


it doesn't show the external requirements(but the others it does).

how can i access to those external element requirements ?

thanks
