Suggestions and Requests / Java enums with implements

« on: June 21, 2005, 10:37:23 am »

I got this error when attempting to reverse engineer some Java 5.0 code in EA:

Code: [Select]

There was an error parsing C:\test\Test.java on line 3.
Unexpected Symbol: implements
Would you like to continue the import?

Here is the offending code:

Code: [Select]

package test;

public enum Test implements Something {
...

The implements keyword is legal for enums, so I assume this is a problem with the parser grammer.

General Board / Re: Changing source file target

« on: May 13, 2010, 01:54:27 am »

I have been slowly working through changing the source target files. Is there any way to do it recursively so all the C++ nested classes get set to the same location?

Also, when performing the import to update the model, is there an option to stop the import dialogue closing when it has completed? or of sending the output to a file?

thanks

General Board / Changing source file target

« on: May 12, 2010, 02:14:10 am »

I have been trying to synchronise a project that has several developers working against a shared model.

It is also a little confused by different feature branches under Subversion.

The model was initially generated from legacy source code and new sections are being designed using the existing classes.

I have set up the Local Paths but I have discovered that some of the source file names have been changed, particularly .h changed to .hpp
I can change the name of an individual target by using the save option on the generate source dialogue. Is there a way to do this for more than one file?

thanks

General Board / custom directory structure

« on: February 17, 2010, 01:50:48 am »

I would like to set up a custom directory structure for my package and usb packages to be used by code generation for C++:

.../include - contains header files *.hpp
.../src/<pkg1> - contains the implementation files for the implementation of pkg 1
.../src/<pkq1>/<subpkg1.1> - contains implementation code for subpkg1
.../src/<pkg2> - contains implementation pkg2

Is this possible through EA, or do I just mive my files afterwards?

thanks

General Board / EA crashes when I try to open help.

« on: October 01, 2007, 11:59:51 pm »

When I try to open help from the menu "Help | Help Contents" in EA, it crashes and I have to restart EA. I don't get a help viewer either. The same happens on build 815 and 817.

I am using Ubuntu 7.04 with Crossover Linux. I have just reinstalled in a win98 bottle. The PC that I am developing on is not connected to the internet.

I have tried all the entries on the Help Menu with the following results:

About                        - OK
Register nad Manage Licenses - OK
Configure Zicom Mentor       - OK
Readme                       - OK
View License Agreement       - crashes
Ordering Information         - crashes
Help Contents                - crashes
Keyboard Accelerator Map     - crashes
On-line resources            - no output
EA on the web                - no output

I have also tried it on my internet PC (same setup with Ubuntu 7.04. Crossover Linux and EA 817) and everything seems to work.
Is this a problem with no internet?

I will report it, but am a little surprised that it has not been spotted before.

General Board / Note text inverted

« on: September 05, 2007, 05:44:08 am »

I have just installed version 7 (build 815) and find that the text in the notes is inverted. It starts at the top of the note box and then each line is displayed above the previous one.

I am running on Ubuntu 7.04 with Crossover Office.

Is there a fix for this?

Is there no way of running with vanilla wine?

General Board / Sequence Diagram Craziness

« on: February 20, 2006, 08:11:41 pm »

Hello!

I have been screwing around with a sequence diagrams trying to get it right, but EA is not cooperating. Whenever I use the new and delete messages I get really odd behavior with the length of lifelines and the X at the end of the line.

For example, Object A creates B using the new lifecycle stereotype. Object C sends a normal sychronous message to B, and B all the sudden decides to destroy itself. The lifeline ends and I see an X.

Another example is C sends itself an self-message with a lifecycle stereotype of delete. The lifeline ends but there is no X. After screwing around a little bit, it see the X is underneath the lifeline for the self-message.

Has anyone else experienced these things?

General Board / Importing Database Datatypes

« on: February 15, 2006, 10:23:16 am »

Hello!

I created a new Database Datatype (Settings->Database Datatypes...) for HyperSQL in one project. I am using HyperSQL in another project, but I don't want to manually re-enter all the datatypes.

Is there any way to import a Database Datatype definition into another project?

Thank you!

General Board / Re: Export XMI

Thanks Simon, this sorts out the problem importing the EA model to Tau. There aren't any duplicates either.

General Board / Export XMI

« on: January 11, 2006, 03:19:25 am »

I am trying to export from EA to import to Tau in XMI format.

The first problem I find is that EA exports using Windows-1252 encoding and Tau doesn't understand this. Is there a way of setting the encoding to ISO-8859-1 that Tau will understand?

I can edit the XML to correct the encoding.

The problem then is that there are duplicate GUIDs in the model that Tau falls over. Is there a setting that will prevent this?

I also tried exporting from Tau, but EA fails to import this as it doesn't like the names exported.
e.g. Tau exports a name
<UML:Parameter xmi.id="i.247.12b3c938" name="alarm.return" kind="return" type="D.class IDecoder&">
Error code 0xc00ce504
char 97
description A name was started with an invalid character

i.e. EA doesn't accept &" at the end of a name.

<UML:Attribute xmi.uuid="C:\workspaces\eatest\eatest3.xml|eaxmiid16" xmi.id="C:\workspaces\eatest\eatest3.xml|eaxmiid16" name="m_listener_list" namespace="C:\workspaces\eatest\eatest3.xml|EAID_6B42EA04_4183_44c7_A1ED_18BA0FE33A4A" visibility="private" type="D.list<IVideoStreamListener*>">

Error code 0xc00ce504
char 267
description The character '<' cannot be used in an attribute value.

i.e. template specialisations can't be used.

Is there any way round this? or are the two systems fundementally different in their interpretation of XMI?

thanks

General Board / Importing comments with C++ source

« on: January 06, 2006, 01:56:29 am »

I have imported some C++ code into EA. There are doxygen comments for the classes and members which is valid doxygen beginning with ///.

The notes for the classes and attributes are filled from the comments in the EA model, but there is no information about the methods and parameters.

Is there a way to get the notes about the methods imported?

thanks
