Automation Interface, Add-Ins and Tools / Problem Accessing Current EA instance from C# with EA 12

« on: May 31, 2016, 10:36:48 pm »

I need to access the running instance of EA from C#,
I have two machines one with EA version 10 installed and the other has version 12
The following code snippet works fine and returns the correct connection string with EA Version 10

Code: [Select]

EA.App EAApplication = (EA.App)Marshal.GetActiveObject("EA.App");
string connStr = EAApplication.Repository.ConnectionString;
Collection models = EAApplication.Repository.Models;

but with EA version 12 ConnectionString is empty and it throws an exception that a file must be open before accessing the repository members.

Bugs and Issues / Code reverse engineering problem

« on: January 12, 2016, 08:11:22 pm »

When I attempt to use "Code Engineering > import source directory" it works fine if the target package is empty,
but, if the package is not empty(contains sub-packages), the reverse results into an empty diagram and no elements are created.
