General Board / Re: "Check Out" error using svn controlled p

« on: April 12, 2011, 02:30:57 am »

We've got that problem a lot.
If you had the item checked out before your computer was rebuilt, you'll have a lock just hanging out in subversion.  Release the lock (the easiest way would be using tortoise to check out & steal lock, and then uncheck out).

If you don't have an outstanding lock (or after the uncheckout was done), do Package Control -> Re-sync Status with VC Provider.

You'll be happening.

Bugs and Issues / Re: Help Needed: Disappearing data in EA 7.5 and S

« on: May 06, 2011, 12:36:50 am »

Adrian,
We had the same problem.  Going to V9 was not an option since we had to jump through a bunch of hoops to get V8 approved.

Be aware that the SVN data is good, it's the database that's messed up.  A good quick fix (not 100%, but most of the time) is to check out the package and then un-checkout.  DO NOT Check in or your data is lost and you'll have to revert in SVN.

I built a plugin that you can run against a branch that does a reload recursively.  That way you don't have to spend an hour checking out/uncheckingout all of the packages.

If you find a better way, please post it.

Bugs and Issues / Re: XSD Transformation creates all <XSDcomplexTypes>

I got you going, dude.
You have to modify the transformation template.
That gives you the XSDSimple stereotype.
You'll also have to check all possible tag values in your source class and copy them to your transformed class.  Still working on setting the base type.

Bugs and Issues / Re: Has anyone been able to refine an association?

Thanks folks.

It's not exactly the visual representation I was expecting, but as long as it displays the info, how can I complain.

Bugs and Issues / Has anyone been able to refine an association?

« on: February 12, 2011, 04:29:08 am »

I'm trying to specialize an association.  A good example why would be this:

I've got an abstract base class called Sport that has an aggregation relationship with an abstract base class called Official.

Now I create a class called Baseball that is derived from Sport, and a class called Umpire that is derived from Official.  

I can also create a class called Football, derived from Sport, and a class called Referee that is derived from Official.

Without the refinement of the aggregation relationship, it would be possible to assign a instance of Referee to an instance of Baseball.

In the past (pre-EA), I was able to do that with a <<refine>> relationship between 2 associations, but I can't seem to do that in EA.  Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance,
-Buddy Robbins
