Automation Interface, Add-Ins and Tools / Re: identify supressed features in diagram

« on: December 29, 2015, 07:58:28 am »

yes, we've seen SupressFOC=1 but we can't figure out which attribute is supressed and which is not. How can we get the name of the visible attributes?

thanks again!

Automation Interface, Add-Ins and Tools / identify supressed features in diagram

« on: December 29, 2015, 07:33:22 am »

Hi,

We want to generate a report from the automation interface without showing the features that have been supressed for a certain diagram (feature visibility). How can we identify the supressed features?
We are using EA 7.5

thanks in advance for your help!

Suggestions and Requests / Password Encryption

« on: January 09, 2006, 07:41:24 am »

Hi, I'd like to have a more sophisticated password encryption algorithm. The one we have now (release 5.0) is pretty easy to guess.

Best Regards,

General Board / Re: Render the EA notes format in external formats

« on: January 23, 2014, 07:08:26 am »

Hi,

we are creating reports through the automation interface with EA 7.5 and we have problems with formated notes.
We are proceeding as follows:

1. We create a WordApplication instance:
   Set WordApp = New Word.Application  

2. We add a template (*.dot):
   WordApp.Documents.Add("template.dot")

3. We save the document as rtf.
   Word.Application.ActiveDocument.SaveAs "TestDocument", FileFormat:=6

4. We get the formated element notes into a variable called elementoEA.Notes

5. We set the notes to the Text property (we tried both options a. and b.)

         a. WordApp.ActiveDocument.Bookmarks("\EndOfDoc").Range.Text = elementoEA.Notes
         a. WordApp.ActiveDocument.Bookmarks("\EndOfDoc").Range.Text = Repository.GetFormatFromField("RTF",elementoEA.Notes)


6. We save the document as rtf
    Word.Application.ActiveDocument.SaveAs "TestDocument", FileFormat:=6


When we open the document instead of seeing the formated text we see the format characters.
What are we doing wrong?

General Board / Re: Version controlled packages in DBMS projects

« on: August 08, 2009, 06:57:01 am »

Version 6.5 (Build 803) works as you need: it allows the team to work on the same version controlled package and manages concurrency on element lock basis.
We are now trying to upgrade to Version 7.5 (Build 847) and we are having the problem you describe. If someone can help...

Thanks in advance.

The same is happening to me. Another difficulty I found is that I cannot remove the CVS Explorer path once I've set one.

thanks in advance for your help.

I think it might be it, because it worked when I tried from another computer.

Thank you all.

General Board / Re: Problems migrating from build 744 to 766

I'm exporting from a model stored in an Oracle Database to a model stored in an EAP file. Maybe is a problem of the Spanish version? We'll be switching to the English version soon. I'll let you know if the problem gets solved.

BTW, I also get a DAO error when I run the integrity check under build 766 on a EAP project free of errors: "DAO.Database[3085]  Undefined function 'Val' in expression"

One more thing: Despite the error message, the update on the class operation is done.

The actual problem appears when trying to import a package from a 744 project to a 766. I get a sequence of error messages and the package is not imported:

DAO.Recordset[3388]
  Unknown function 'Date' in validation expresion or default value on 't_object.CreateDate'.

DAO.Recordset[3020]
  Update or CancelUpdate without AddNew or Edit

followed by repeated EA errors saying that package could not be found to insert diagrams in it.

I'd appreciate your suggestions on this topic.

Does anyone know how to deal with this?

General Board / Performance issue with element templates in Oracle

« on: March 17, 2005, 06:09:09 am »

We have an EA (build 744) project with aproximately 6000 elements in an Oracle repository. When I drop a use case from the toolbox on a diagram it takes 40 seconds to draw. We currently have an element template on use cases. I found out that the problem does not occur when I disable the element template by moving it out from the element template package.
This problem doesn't happen if the project is stored in an .EAP file.

Are there other known performance issues on Oracle based EA projects?

Greetings

General Board / Re: Corporate Edition - Oracle Database Size

« on: March 14, 2005, 08:34:59 am »

Hello everyone!

We are performing some tests in order to move our  EAP file based project to an Oracle 10g repository. We want to have different Oracle users having access to a common schema, so we created a schema named ea_proto where we transfered the data our EAP file and a schema named ea_proto_user that has grants and synonyms pointing to ea_proto’s tables. If  ea_proto_user logs in and tries to create a new EA package , the following error message appears: ORA-00942: table or view does not exist.
We traced the database connection and found out that the database dictionary tables are queried with the condition table_schema = 'EA_PROTO_USER' instead of table_schema = 'EA_PROTO'

SELECT *
FROM (SELECT NULL table_catalog, idx.table_owner table_schema,
idx.table_name table_name, NULL index_catalog,
idx.owner index_schema, idx.index_name index_name,
NULL primary_key,
DECODE (idx.uniqueness, 'UNIQUE', -1, 0) unique_,
NULL clustered, NULL TYPE, NULL fill_factor,
idx.initial_extent initial_size, NULL NULLS,
NULL sort_bookmarks, -1 auto_update, 2 null_collation,
col.column_position ordinal_position,
col.column_name column_name, NULL column_guid,
NULL column_propid, 1 collation, NULL cardinality,
NULL pages, NULL filter_condition, NULL integrated
FROM all_indexes idx, all_ind_columns col
WHERE idx.owner = col.index_owner
AND idx.index_name = col.index_name
AND idx.table_owner = col.table_owner
AND idx.table_name = col.table_name) dbschema_indexes
WHERE table_schema = 'EA_PROTO_USER' AND table_name = 'T_OBJECTPROBLEMS'
ORDER BY 8, 10, 5, 6, 17

Does anyone know how we can solve this problem?

Thank you very much.

Automation Interface, Add-Ins and Tools / Re: Automatically transfer DBMS to .eap

« on: February 16, 2013, 05:02:28 am »

Thank you very much to you all for your help.
We wrote a program as indicated and managed to automatically transfer a small DBMS repository to .eap.
When we transfer our production environment though, we get a pop up window reporting a "transfer error". When transferring manually we just checked "Ignore All errors". Is there a way to tell the automation interface to do that?

Automation Interface, Add-Ins and Tools / Automatically transfer DBMS to .eap

« on: February 05, 2013, 01:45:35 am »

In order to have an easily accessible daily backup of our DBMS repository we would like to have a batch process that automatically transfers the DMBS repository to an .eap.
Any suggestions on how to do this?

Thank you very much for your help.
