Remove MDG technology

[anna.szucs]

Hello

I need help.
How can I remove my MDG file from EA'a MDG dialog?

I made MDG technology, I imported it, and I used it.
But sometimes my technology XML file hides from EA/MDGTechnologies library, but I can see it from EA MDG technology dialog.
I imports (or copies) it again but now I can see my MDG technology 2 times in the MDG tech. dialog and so on.
Now I can see my MDG technology 4 times and it troubles me!

I found simple solutions: remove MDG files from MDGTechnologies library but i does not work. My file is not in folder but I can see in EA's MDG technology dialog.

Thanks

Just delete the source file. It's either where the Advanced setting in the MDG dialog shows or under EA Program directory in the MDG sub-folder.

If both is not the case look in the Project Resource window where it might have been imported for the project statically.

Thanks your reply!

1.MDG Technology/WebDP MDG/Advanced setting were empty every MDG of mine.
After I add path to my first MDG. After I can see new path the other WebDP MDG too. After I remove the path from my first item (it has done automkatically the others too).
Nothing has changed! I can see 4 WebDP MDG tech in EA MDG technology dialog.

2. in Resource window, there isn't anything under MDG technology.

I have tried every solution what I found on the internet but nothing worked.

I do not understand that too EA why do not update my MDG file why showing as a new MDG technology.

I think there is a sort of relation between my items and I have to remove it from file directly. I have looked over every EA phisycal file but I did not find any reg, property or similar file.

You did not tell us about the Programs folder. The Sparx EA program folder has a sub-folger MDG Technologies (I'm off-site and writing by heart) where EA also looks for MDG files.

Also look in %APPDATA%\Sparx Systems\EA\MDGTechnologies

Thanks, the answers for everybody!

I wrote, I looked for my WebDP MDG tech. .xml files in MDGTechnologies library too but there aren't any WebDP file althought I can see my MDG tech files in EA MDG technology dialog window.

That is why I am puzzled.  :-/

I am looking for such sulotion what I can not find on internet, because I tried most of them but did not worked neither of them.

From the main menu, go Settings > MDG Technologies. In the MDG Technologies dialog, select your technology. Now look over on the right-hand side of that dialog and where it says "Location:", what does it say after that?

Something new, thanks!  

It is interesting, because the location is different of each my MDG tech.

1. WebDP MDG - Location: WebDpTool MDG.
Here I can not see any library (?) only file name

2. WebDP MDG - Location: WebDp MDG.xml (in APPDATA)
Maybe this refer to the %APPDATA%\Sparx Systems\EA\MDGTechnologies (?)

3. WebDP MDG - Location: WebDpTool MDG.xml (in APPDATA)
Maybe this refer to the %APPDATA%\Sparx Systems\EA\MDGTechnologies (?)

4.WebDp extends - WebDP_MDG.xml (in APPDATA)
Maybe this refer to the %APPDATA%\Sparx Systems\EA\MDGTechnologies (?)

You can see from the list my MDG files lifecycle  
Maybe after I made some altering in main data of MDG tech.file, it seemed as a new MDG tech. file. (?)

To look in APPDATA, open Windows Explorer and type %APPDATA% in the address bar

Thank you for your help!

Yesteday I tried: I remove all files (not only mine) from c:\Program Files\Sparx Systems\EA\MDGTechnologies\, so the library was empty.
I run EA and I also find 3 WebDP items in MDG tech.dialog.  
After I run REGEDIT, and I found lot of WebDP::xxxx class definition (for EA) I deleted it.
Nothing was changed.  
I run EA and I also find 3 WebDP items in MDG tech.dialog.  

(Of course after I copied back MDG tech. to APPLIB except mine.)

I think something went wrong in my EA's soul   and I try to find it but I can not yet.
