General Board / Importing BPEL

« on: June 08, 2010, 06:36:19 pm »

This may well be a stupid question, but has anyone tried to import BPEL into EA?
IF so, how on earth do you do it.

Cheers
Al

Bugs and Issues / Build 846 schema generation error

« on: July 22, 2009, 08:29:22 pm »

Hi, since I've moved from a previous trial version to a licensed build 846 the right click "Generate XML Schema" option appears to have stopped working
I've tried creating a new package with a simple class, and using a set of classes stereotyped with the XSD MDG tags and both give me an"Error writing XML file" message.
Its stopping me getting my MDG code out to a customer

Automation Interface, Add-Ins and Tools / Transforms: association classes

« on: April 07, 2010, 10:28:25 pm »

Can anyone tell me how I can Identify a connector which has an association class, using the transformation language.
It's driving me mad.

Cheers

Automation Interface, Add-Ins and Tools / Transformations and the Automation Interface

« on: March 26, 2010, 10:55:19 pm »

I'm trying to build message models from a logical data model.
When I execute a trasformation into XSD from my UML model, I get a package containing stereotyped classes, which is great.
IF I then update the orignial, and add an attribute then repeat the transform, the correct classes in the target model are synched up, and the new attribute added.
Therefore, I suspect that EA is maintaining dome link between the source and target classes.
Can anyone tell me where this link is stored, and how I might access it through the automation interface (or frankly just through the DB)

Cheers
Al

Automation Interface, Add-Ins and Tools / Toolbox Help

« on: July 20, 2009, 07:45:45 pm »

Hi,
I'm trying to develop a custom toolbox, and i've successfully got the toolbox to appear, but when I drag the items onto a diagram, nothing seems to happen.
The pointer changes to a plus sign, but thats about it.

I enclose the segment of the  MDG XML file..
<UIToolboxes><UMLProfile profiletype="uml2">
                  <Documentation id="A315B280-5" name="MDSOATools" version="1.0" notes="MDSOATools"/>

gave that a go but it didn't seem to get me anywhere.

Interestingly, the connections it's being funny with are compositions - which EA seems to insist upon drawing the wrong way round...

« on: August 18, 2009, 06:20:24 pm »

I'm having a similar issue.
I'm creating a new connector, and I call update, and then refresh the collections as follows:

con.SetClientID(srcEl.GetElementID());
con.SetSupplierID(tgtEl.GetElementID());
con.Update();
srcEl.GetConnectors().Refresh();
tgtEl.GetConnectors().Refresh();

However, I still get a null pointer when I call getConnectorbyGUID later!

Automation Interface, Add-Ins and Tools / Generating BPMN Code

« on: June 25, 2009, 07:14:49 pm »

I have som BPMN models which I'd like to share with a customer.
Ideally I'd like to generate the XML representation of BPMN and send that rather than an EA XMI (as they use another tool).
Can anyone tell me how to do this on v7. or the 30 day eval of 7.5 buld 845.
thanks
Al

« on: June 11, 2009, 07:14:41 pm »

EA has encountered  problem and needs to close.
I'll email the xmi through.
Incidentally, what do I have to do to get the code gen to correctly generate attributes of type List<class>. i've never managed to work it out.
