reverse Engg problem

[Seemna]

hi,
Im reverse Engineering some code and there seems to be a problem with synchronization.. ive added some collaboration diagrams to the package, and when i import the latest version of the file, instead of synchronizing with the existing one, it makes another copy of it.. so i get doubles of every class all in the same package!!
what gives??

Hi,

Have you moved the source code to another directory or changed file names? If you move it you will need to adjust your directory paths.

How do you synchronize ... which menu option or toolbar button?

Do you have an example of a file that is causing problems you could send me?

Waiting to hear from you,

If i move my files in windows explorer, where do I need to go (in EA) to change the file paths for each package (or individual class)?

As a newbie (doing an evaluation) I cannot seem to find where to do this! Using version 4.1.

Hello,

If you are only changing one or two file paths then you can do it through the property view.  (View | Properties)  Just type in the new filename or select the field and click on the ellipsis.

Otherwise you will need to use the local paths dialog (Configuration | Local Paths...) to change the paths for you.

Enter the old file path (or some part of it) into the path field, give it some ID and select the language to apply it to.  Then click apply path.  This will make all filepaths that include that path at the start become local filepaths.

Once you have done that enter the new filepath into the path field.  (You can then click expand path and delete the path if you want to.)
