The answer is, the output file string uses forward slashes instead of double back slashes.
change C:/TEMP/autoexported.xml to C:\\TEMP\autoexported.xml and I'm in business.

Would be much nicer had EA not failed silently in this case though.

So I have been trying this, and my code executes with no errors, but no file is created. Also, the string result returned from ExportPackageXMI is an empty string. Not sure if that is a good indication or bad one.

So here is my method. Anyone see what I am doing wrong?

Code: [Select]


       public bool Export(string eapFilePath, string xmiFilePath, bool includeDiagrams)
       {
           try
           {
               EA.Repository r = new EA.RepositoryClass();
               r.OpenFile(eapFilePath);

               EA.Package topPackage = r.Models.GetAt(0) as EA.Package;
               EA.Package p = topPackage.Packages.GetAt(0) as EA.Package;
               string packageGUID = p.PackageGUID;
               System.Console.WriteLine("Trying to export package name [" + p.Name + "].");

               /*
               int diagramXML = 0;
               int diagramImage = -1;
               int formatXML = 1;
               int useDTD = 0;
               EA.EnumXMIType xmiType = EA.EnumXMIType.xmiMOF14;
               */
               EA.EnumXMIType xmiType = EA.EnumXMIType.xmiEA11;
               int diagramXML = 1;
               int diagramImage = 0;
               int formatXML = 1;
               int useDTD = 1;
               xmiFilePath = "C:/Temp/autoexported.xml";
               string result =
                   r.GetProjectInterface().ExportPackageXMI(packageGUID, xmiType,
                       diagramXML, diagramImage, formatXML, useDTD, xmiFilePath);
               r.CloseFile();

           }
           catch (Exception e)
           {
               System.Console.WriteLine(e.Message);
           }

           return true;
       }

Any tips would be appreciated.
