A suggestion for SPARX for the HTML Report tool

Currently if I generate an HTML Report of my UML model, and my model has associations to classes in a package external to my model (like ISO packages), then those associations are ignored and not documented in the report.  If I want to see all the associations of my model, I have to include the external package within my UML model package.

But... wouldn't it be good if the HTML report could describe that there is an association from my class to an external class, without me having to include the whole external package in my report (eg, I don't want to include the whole ISO19115 model in my HTML report!).  My most recent HTML report went from 9Mb to 40Mb because I had to include all of the ISO packages that my model linked to be able to report a handful of associations.

General Board / Re: "Check Out" error using svn controlled p
« on: April 12, 2011, 08:39:07 am »
This problem has now sorted itself out, but not before I had to throw away my EAP file and build another one from scratch.  My EAP file had convinced itself that there was a lock on all the subversion-controlled packages that I was using.  No amount of re-syncing with version control providers, or svn update, cleanup, lock breaking, or any other thing I tried in subversion or EA would convince the EAP file that I should be able to check them out.

My brand new EAP file, with all the version control settings set up from scratch and packages all re-imported, works perfectly.

General Board / "Check Out" error using svn controlled p
« on: April 05, 2011, 12:11:21 pm »
I'm working on the network of a large organisation and recently had my PC rebuilt.  :( Now when I try to check out controlled packages from my remote subversion, I get an error message - "Ability to import is currently locked by user: 'PC-62493".  The username quoted in the error message is the local username for my PC when it is not connected to the network.  But I'm logged on using my network username (not "PC-62493") and EA won't let me check out any packages.  How do I change this so that EA will let me check out packages using my network username?  Is it a EA or a Subversion problem?

Thanks, Ollie

Bugs and Issues / Re: TaggedValues disappear from v7.5 to v8

This has been officially logged as a bug.  It is caused by a fault in the XMI export function which I use in checking packages in and out of a subversion.  From Simon at Sparx support:

"We have now been able to reproduce both the issues you described.
 
Regarding the connector role tags.  This appears to be an issue with the XMI export in EA 8.0.  Looking at an XMI export from EA 8.0, the role tagged value data is not included, therefore if the XMI is imported back into the model these tagged values are removed (this includes XMI export/imports which occur when checking in/out Version Controlled packages).  We have logged this as a bug to be fixed.  
 
Reference Number: 10065919
 
I will follow this up our developers to ensure it is treated with high priority and we will let you know we have any updates on a fix.  I was not able to identify any workaround for this issue while using EA 8.0.  Testing with a different XMI format the same issue occurred.  I would recommend you continue to use EA 7.5 for the time being.
 
Regarding the Attribute Tags not being displayed.  It seems this issue only occurs when the Attribute's Class is locked (either due to Version Control, or EA's Security options).  If the element is unlocked the tags appear ok.  This issue has been reported by another user previously and is currently logged to be fixed.
 
Reference Number: 10014457
 
I had also mentioned an issue when changing the "Show Duplicate Tags" or "Show Fully Qualified Tags" options on the Attribute Tagged Values Tab.  This appears to be unrelated to the issue mentioned above.  I have logged it as a separate bug to be fixed (Ref: 10065920)"

The tagged values which have disappeared for me are 'sequenceNumber' and 'inlineOrByReference'.

I, and several of my co-workers, have just upgraded to v8 (from v7.x). When we opened a v7.x EAP file in v8, the tagged values assigned to association links have disappeared!  We are working with a big class model and really don't want to have to rebuild all our tagged values.  If this problem cannot be solved, I am reinstalling version 7 and want my money back from the version 8 'upgrade'.  >:(

PS. Note also that tagged values assigned to class attributes in version 7 will display in a version 8 "Tagged Values" window pane, but will not display in the "Tagged Values" tab of the class attributes dialog.  Why?
