Suggestions and Requests / Re: Check out branch ...

« on: October 28, 2009, 12:08:17 am »

Here is the C# code!


public void EA_checkout(EA.Repository Repository, string Location, string MenuName, string ItemName)
        {

            //"CHECK-OUT BRANCH" SCRIPT:
            
           // EA.Package pck;
            string  TreeSelectedItemType = Repository.GetTreeSelectedItemType().ToString();
            
            string comment = "Comment: Check-Out branch" + DateTime.Now.ToString();

            EA.Package EAPackage = Repository.GetTreeSelectedPackage();

            if (TreeSelectedItemType == "otPackage"){
                 IteratePackages (Repository , EAPackage, comment );
            }            
            else{
                MessageBox.Show("The selected object doesn’t support this functionality. Select a Model, View or Package.");
            }
            

        }
            private void IteratePackages (EA.Repository Repository,EA.Package Package, string Comment)
            {
               int Status = Package.VersionControlGetStatus();
               if (Status != 1)
                {//If isn’t in Check-in state
                   if (Status != 2)
                    { //If isn’t in Check-out for me
                       MessageBox.Show  ("Impossible to make Check-Out of the Package " + Package.Name);
                   }
               }

               Package.VersionControlCheckout (Comment);
               Repository.RefreshModelView (Package.PackageID);
              
                
                for (short i = 0; i < Package.Packages.Count; i++)
                {

                    EA.Package thisPackage = (EA.Package)Package.Packages.GetAt(i);

                    IteratePackages(Repository ,thisPackage,Comment );

                }
                              
        }

Suggestions and Requests / report with diferences between baselines

« on: April 08, 2009, 09:11:28 pm »

Hello,

I don't know if this can be done in a diferent way but, I would really like to get a report of a package, lets say "Use case template".
The thing is that I would like to get the report with the diferences between the loaded Model against a selected baseline.

We can get this info with the current features of EA, I think it would only take the mix of the compare utility with the rtf reporting features.

This would greatly help, sharing requirements changes between team members.

Suggestions and Requests / Raquest with use cases

« on: November 26, 2008, 02:55:03 am »

Hello, will Raquest have the ability to document usecases in the future?

I know that right now this is very limited to generating use cases to EA.

Thank you in advance!

General Board / Glossary

« on: July 10, 2009, 06:55:34 pm »

Hello,

in the glossary window how can we add a Glossary type besides the ones already present ( Business, Technical ) ?

Is there a table in the database, or any menu option, where I can alter these two types? or are they hardcoded?

Thanks in advance!

General Board / Re: Use case scenario tagged value

« on: July 02, 2009, 07:10:23 pm »

Hello Luis,

The solutions presented are not what we would like to have.
In fact I see adding a column in the database table t_objectscenarios to link.

Does anyone do change management at a scenario level?

It seems that we are more demanding, but we are only try to respond to a simple question.
"how do I get a simple report of requirements impacted by a change at the scenario level?"
If this is not possible,
"how do I get a simple report of requirements based by a change that shows the diferences between the current version and the previous one?"

Has anyone resolved this issue?

thanks in advance,
Henrique

General Board / Re: Use case scenario tagged value

« on: July 01, 2009, 10:10:48 pm »

First of all, Thank you Luis. Gracias!

I think it would be very dificutl for the requirements team.

The way I look at it is to create an addin that links Change elements to Scenarios ( in the t_objectscenarios table). something like using the t_connector table, and use a connector_type = scenario.

Still this is a bit out of what i would like.

Does anyone do requirements change management at a scenario level? if so, how?

General Board / Use case scenario tagged value

« on: July 01, 2009, 07:44:14 pm »

Hello,

I would like to have a tagged value in every use case scenario.

The issue I'm trying to resolve is to have traceability between a Change and a specific scenario impact.
I know that I can link a change to a use case but this is not sufficient.

Is there another way to get the same result throught a diferent feature?

thanks in advance!

General Board / Re: Documenting Business Rules in EA

« on: February 13, 2009, 04:15:36 am »

The work arround sounds good.
in the 7.5 i have tried to use the business rule but it is linked to the requirement auto name counter, so it's back to the drawing board.

General Board / Re: Documenting Business Rules in EA

« on: February 10, 2009, 08:53:12 am »

Hi all,

great thread!

we want to use Business rules, to document specific domain requirements. so far so good.

however we also want to use the Auto name counter function to automatically define the BR.

How can I create a new element type that may be a target of an auto name counter rule?

I have searched in the uml profile section but I don't see the solution there.

Any ideas?

This procedure should be a annex to the requirements management documentation

Bugs and Issues / Re: Checked out package overvritten by GetAllLates

« on: October 27, 2010, 04:06:33 am »

Have you developed the addin?  Can you make it available?

Thanks in advance!

Instead of waiting for EA to come up with a solution, I started to write an EA-AddIn that replaces the whole VersionControl and GettingLatest Stuff.

- Basically, when opening the EAP-File, the AddIn scans through all controlled packages, compares their version to the one in the repository and displays a nice overview of the whole situation.
- Furthermore it shows the dependencies of the different packages amount each other, so to know that a package needs some classes of another one
- It shows in a Tourtoise-kind of view the list of availabe revisions per package, and a any revision can directly be retrieved from the repository
- the AddIn resolves all dependencies and can perform a healthy GetAllLatest in the correct order to prevent relations beeing removed silently.

This AddIn is just a workaround for us, since EA doesn't seem to care about this issues of XMI handling and resolving relations.
