Ad 2 - Delete. From Tools/Options uncheck Confirm deletes from Project Browser. Choose more elements at once in PROJECT BROWSER and Ctrl+Delete.
I WOULD NEVER USE SUCH A DANGEROUS THING!
What I do is that I have a package named Bin, where I put all leftovers. Only problem is that you have to delete them from diagrams and relations manually.


I agree... now  :o

Maybe Sparx could make it a little less dangerous by showing number of links and number of element usages in delete confirmation box.
Would be 8)

Thank you all for your suggestions: Ctrl-U, Ctrl-Del was very helpful and I have studied a list of all shortcuts in the meantime ;-)

Coming back to that Undo-Issue. Am I the only one having a problem with that functionality?
For me it would be okay if Undo is just not available anymore if it is not possible to undo the latest action.

But what we have now is very confusing:
*) Sometimes Undo is not available (e.g. if you delete a class from the model  ;) )
*) Sometimes the action before is undone (e.g. add a class to a diagram, rename it and undo... the class is gone (from the diagram))
*) Ctrl-Del a class from a diagram...you get a warning that the action can not be undone.

Whats your experience with Undo or how do you handle it?

Best regards,
DD

Suggestions and Requests / Undo / Delete
« on: August 31, 2006, 12:06:58 pm »
Hi again!

1 - Undo: "Note: some actions cannot be undone." Can I find a list of these actions somwhere? Would it be possible to inform/warn the user when an undo does not affect the latest action?!

2 - Delete: Is it possible to delete several selected elements in project browser at once?

Thank you very much...

Best regards,
DD

Thank you so much. You are a BIG help  ::)

ad 3) I have a good feeling THAT and a rough idea HOW it would work with a Custom SQL Search. Nevertheless if Advanced Search/Search In would support Hierarchy next to Entire Model and Current Tree Selection, this would be much easier.

Best regards,

Suggestions and Requests / Crazy Test Engineers
« on: September 17, 2006, 03:38:11 pm »
Hi All!

In the meantime I am not doing EA evaluation for my group only, but I am something like a Sparx representative in my company.

Now test engineers are asking if there is a one to many relationship possible between a test case and model elements...
and, if yes... if creator of the test case gets informed somehow about changes in one of the related elements.

For me the request makes absolutely sense. They want to connect a test case with requirements, use cases, design and implementation elements and want to redo the test when one of the elements changes.

What I found out till now (please correct me if I'm wrong)

*) Test Case is related to one model element only (can be a package of course)

*) There is no notification if that element changes

*) There is no view of all testcases within a package or the whole model

*) If I am not totally wrong the "Import element scenario(s)" is buggy in v6.5.796
 
Any suggestions how I could satisfy my testers needs with Enterprise Architect?

Best regards,
DD

Hi all!

I know that I have more questions than answers at the moment in this forum. I hope this will change soon, but now a little hint how YOU do the C++ model tranfsormation would really be helpful  :P

Thank you,

Suggestions and Requests / C++ Model Transformation
« on: August 31, 2006, 11:43:04 am »
Hi all!

I am using EA since several month now for a rather small project for Design and C++ Roundtrip Engeneering. I am very satisfied with the tool and the support and the price/performance ratio is just great. At the moment I try to convince the rest of my company about it.
Therefore I hope the community will help me to find the right arguments in the next time ;-)

My first question is about C++ Model Transformation and Templates:

There is a good roundtrip support for C++... What I don't understand is, why there is no C++ Model Transformation available. Is there any reason for this? Is it thought to be implemented in upcoming versions? Or can I can find ready-made templates somewhere?

What I did now was more or less a copy&paste from the C# templates. I don't hope that writing templates is necessary already, but (if yes  :P) where can I find good documentation and/or documented examples??

Thank you very much...

Suggestions and Requests / Re: Default "Language" of Classes
« on: August 31, 2006, 03:51:45 pm »
Found answer in an other thread :-X

It's the one under "Build and Run/Package Build Scripts" and not the language you can select in Package Properties  ;)

Thx and Bye

Suggestions and Requests / Default "Language" of Classes
« on: August 31, 2006, 03:39:48 pm »
Hi!

Is it possible that newly created classes get the default language of the package they belong to?! I want to work solely with UML datatypes in PIM and with e.g. C++ in a PSM package.

If it's not possible, wouldn't it be a good idea  ::)  ?!

Thank you.

Best regards,
DD

Can be done with @ in notes
e.g.

summary description
@returns 42

General Board / Tags in XML.NET notes/comments
« on: June 11, 2008, 08:23:46 pm »
Hello!

I use XML.NET comment style.
Is it somehow possible to get (correct!) XML tags created like <returns> (outside summary block) or <code>, <example>,... (within summary block).  

Best regards,
Didi

General Board / Re: Reverse Engineering - "new" Relation not
« on: April 15, 2008, 05:20:18 pm »
In version 7.1 of EA I can't find that stereotype <<local>> for associations anymore. What kind of relationship should be / do you use for 2 classes where one uses the other.

What I know from UML it should be an association and not a dependency. If yes, I have to tell EA not to create a member variable.

Thanks in advance.

General Board / Version Controlling of Nested Packages
« on: February 06, 2007, 02:16:45 am »
Hi All!

There have been some threads regarding similar topics already,
e.g.

unfortunately no satisfying soltion was proposed so far.

For me the major problems remaining are:

1) There is no "Update to Revision"(SVN) or "Update Special"(CVS) for a package and containing nested packages.

2) With Get(All)Latest or ImportPackageFromXMI nested packages appear to be empty.

In my understanding deselecting the flag "Save nested version to stubs only" in Version Conrol Settings should solve the problem.

Unfortunately it does not.

SPARX: Is it thought to finally solve this issues in one of the next releases?? It seems to be so important on one hand and definitely not much of an effort on the other hand.

Best regards,
Didi

Thank you both.

General Board / Linked Documents
« on: October 03, 2006, 02:07:29 am »
Hi All!

1) Is it possible to include Linked Documents in generated RTF documentation? This is very important for me and would make EA interesting for us in use case modeling also.

2) How do one find elements which have an linked document in a) diagrams and in b) the model?

Or... are you using a Document Artifact for every element you want to link a document to?

Thank you very much.

Best regards,
DD
