Error while importing MDG file
« on: December 08, 2016, 10:10:26 pm »
Hello,

I'm using Enterprise Architect 12 Corporate Edition and I receive the following erorr when I import an MDG file that is probably created in EA 12.1:

"The current version of EA only supports ID's up to 12 characters in length. Please shorten the ID field in the profile and retry".

It looks evident for me that I just need to shorten the ID, but where in the xml file can I find the right ID field?

Thanks,

Uffe

Hello,

It's the id attribute of the Documentation element, right up top.

If you're hand-editing an .mts file (which is also XML) to generate an MDG Technology, the ID is in the id attribute of the Technology element, again, right up top.

HTH,

My theories are always correct, just apply them to the right reality.
