Bugs and Issues / Re: [EA 7.1 827] Font rendering in class diagram

« on: March 28, 2008, 09:02:45 pm »

Have you logged this formally as a bug with Sparx ?   As well as having a workaround, it would be good to get it fixed.

Bugs and Issues / Re: Exception error when closing EA...

Also, the first few builds of Screen Architect seemed to cause an EA error on exit very similar to this.

Bugs and Issues / Re: Difficulties creating a UML profile

« on: February 15, 2008, 02:02:07 am »

Regarding order of stereotypes, I have found that if you reorder them the way you want in the project browser BEFORE exporting this will influence the order when the profile is subsequently loaded.  This has been OK as a workaround for me.

Could you raise a bug report for this ?

Uml Process / Forward Engineer a Class Model - Beginner question

« on: May 24, 2012, 11:00:49 pm »

Just need a bit of direction please.  

Let's assume you have a well structured platform independent class model, which by its nature contains data and behavioural definitions and relationships.   This can be forward engineered for the intended target database to create a platform specific data model, say for Ms-SQLServer using the EA DDL transformation.  However this process loses the behavioural aspect of the class model as well as not supporting inheritance complexities.

So, what, for you, has been the most successful way to forward engineer the behaviours from the class model for the persistent data to get the other side of the story ?  Is there another transformation you would recommend, or does it have to be done manually (e.g. where stored procedures are providing the behaviour) including putting in relationships for traceability in order to get towards the complete physical model picture ?

Thanks

Uml Process / Re: Link Use Case with Requirement

« on: July 16, 2009, 06:35:10 pm »

Drag and drop is a great way to achieve this, but if you have many to do at once, another method to consider is a matrix profile between requirements and use cases - you can create the relationships directly in the matrix.

Uml Process / Re: Link Use Case with Requirement

There are a number of ways to do this,  but the most straightforward is to create a diagram to show how the requirements are being implemented/realised.  Then:
1) Drag a requirement onto the diagram as a simple link
2) Drag the relevant Use Case onto the diagram as a simple link
3) With the Use Case selected/in focus,  use the quicklinker (the arrow near the top right corner of the selected element)  to create a "realize" relationship between the 2 elements  - to do this click on the arrow and hold the left mouse button down while you drag it to hover over the requirement.  Let the mouse button go,  and from the context menu that appears select "realization".

Uml Process / Re: Create / Edit Use Case Design Problem

« on: July 10, 2009, 02:01:05 am »

I agree with Geert, but if you stick with your approach then the use case containing the shared functions would be "included" in the create user/edit user use cases so the relationship would be <<includes>>.

Automation Interface, Add-Ins and Tools / Re: Key store permissions

« on: March 31, 2011, 08:04:01 pm »

Why can't Sparx help with this - after all it's their software !  

We run with the Key Store on a network server,  but we don't run the key store service.  Everyone just picks up a shared key from the key store file.   This works OK.

RAQuest also has some MS-Word integration.   Highlight text in Word, right-click and register the selection as a new requirement.

Have you looked at the white paper on using the RTF generator which includes some info on numbering ?

If not,  see

I think may be you should raise this as a bug/support issue directly with Sparx Japan at www.raquest.com

As well as removing your e-mail address, how about sharing the solution or workaround here for everyone to see ?
