General Board / Re: Model Documents based on SQL Search and template fragments

« on: February 13, 2017, 09:59:49 pm »

HI Geert,

I it is not an SQL Fragment the setup is as follows
<<model document>> someReport
  tag values
  RTFTemple = myTemplate
  SearchName = testSearch
  SearchTerm = UseStory

myTemplate contains a selector fragment and one of those fragments reports on an element that has child elements and it does not report them.  use myTemplate against a package and the elements in the package the have children do have the children reported.  something funny with the way the SQL report changes the way a template behave.

Any better ideas?

General Board / Model Documents based on SQL Search and template fragments

« on: February 13, 2017, 05:17:59 pm »

Hi Peeps,

I have a model document that uses a custom SQL search of the model to return a number of different objects.
In the template attached to the model document I have fragment that is a template selector to deal with each type of object returned, the selector works fine and selects the correct  fragment for the object found.

However one of the object has number of child elements so I set up its particular fragment to report on the child elements.  When I use this in the model document that returns objects via the SQL search none of the child elements are returned. 

When I run the same template (with the selector fragment) against a package the the child elements get returned correctly. What am doing wrong?  The problem only occurs when using the an SQL search against a model document with the template.

TIA,
Tony

General Board / Re: RTF Documentation - Element filtering

« on: June 06, 2016, 03:12:19 pm »

Hi Geert,

Thanks for your prompt reply however that int quite what I am after as the model search works across the whole model and I am only after the elements the current package (or sub package), that have operations and not the whole model.

Can you see any way of achieving that kind of filter.

BTW: the model search SQL I used is
SELECT t_object.ea_guid AS CLASSGUID,
   Object_Type AS CLASSTYPE,t_object.Name
FROM t_object, t_operation where t_object.Object_ID=t_operation.Object_ID
group by
   t_object.ea_guid,
   Object_Type,
   t_object.Name

General Board / RTF Documentation - Element filtering

Hi Forum.

I want to create an RTF that only reports on elements that have operations.  I have tried all sorts of filters in various fragments and cannot seem to get an approach that works.  Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Kind regards,
Tony

General Board / Deployment View

« on: October 26, 2015, 04:18:43 pm »

HI All,

 Need help understanding the deployment view.  You will need to go to the example project->Software Engineering->Deployment Model->Head Office Deployment-> Ho Servers.
Once you have the diagram open you will see top centre node (Web Server) has compartment with the physical machine specification.  

The question is how do you edit these values?  I cannot find anywhere to edit them and the help was not helpful.  They appear to be attributes I but can't seem to find the values to change.  e.g. I may want to change Disks = 4 x 80 GB to Disks = 4 x 120 GB.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

@Sparx Systems.  when and how quick can we have this please?

General Board / Re: Help -- Local Paths & Resource Documents

« on: June 29, 2015, 05:50:56 pm »

HI All,

Sorry - I suppose I need to be a bit clearer.  A resource document contains a path to the file it is going to generate.  This path is specific to the machine it was created on.  If the model is then opened on another machine then path wont work and the doc wont generate.  Hence I need path to be expanded from a local path variable (or better yet a relative path from the model open location and create the path if it does not exist).  

Regards,
Tony

Hi All,

I have a number of people working on a project and want them to all be able to generate the the documents that are stored as "Resource Documents" or "Defined Documents"  Ho do I get the "Local Paths" capability to work against a "Resource Document"?

I have used "Apply Path" against various types with out success.

General Board / Use Case report generation

« on: March 01, 2015, 01:53:01 pm »

HI Forum,

I have modelled a Use Case with the sequence diagrams nested under the Use Case in the project browser>
UC Package
  First UC
    Main Flow sequence diagram
    Alt Flow sequence diagram.
  Second UC....

When I want to generate a UC report for each UC I can't iterate through the messages in each flow as they are nested under the UC which is an element.  Can somebody please advise me how to create a report template that will allow me to create a report that find each sequence diagram nested in the UC and then iterate through the messages in the diagram so I can have the flow in a report without having each flow nested at the package level which I see as wrong.

Thanks in advance.

Tony

There are no filters used at all.
