Locking Packages
« on: October 29, 2002, 03:27:44 pm »
I just upgraded to the Corporate edition of EA hoping that it would allow me to lock packages to users.  My intention was to give specific users responsibility for and ultimate control over their own subsystems in the model.

Now I can see how to lock individual classes and diagrams, but not how to lock all diagrams and classes within a package without doing them one at a time.

Am I mistaken in thinking that this can be done?

Hi Frank,

Yes - that is a bit inconvenient. I will add in a dialog to allow locking of element within a package (and optionally to recurse down the the package tree). The options would be to lock diagrams and/or elements in one action. Likewise locks could be cleared.

This shouldnt take to long to implement and may be available in the next couple of weeks.

It isn't often that one finds a company so responsive to its customers (the folks at http://www.sawmill.net/ come to mind).

I sure do appreciate it when I find it.  You guys can expect more orders from the company I am currently consulting with!
