Get the list of tags of a connector

[tzafrir]

Hi,
I am trying to get the list of tags that are associated with a ST, that is associated to a connector.

I found an API that gets the tag from the connector:
EA.Collection tagCollection = connector.TaggedValues;

but trying to run over them with simple loop:
for(short i = 0;i< tagCollection.Count; i++)
{
  EA.TaggedValue tag = (EA.TaggedValue)tagCollection.GetAt(i);
  tagName = tag.Name;
}

I get exception that casting cannot be done, and can not do this conversion.

Can someone tell me how can I overcome it? or other way to get the tags of the connector?

Thanks

Not sure about that Java stuff, but try a long instead of the short. Pretty sure the tagCollection.Count returns a long that can't be casted to short.

try casting to EA.ConnectorTag

It helps to read the manual you know: https://sparxsystems.com/enterprise_architect_user_guide/15.0/automation/connector.html

try casting to EA.ConnectorTag

This would be the problem.

I believe short is correct and Java will complain if you pass GetAt a long or int.

So as we are at guessing: what I do in such cases is to comment things stepwise to find the culprit.

Thanks for the help,
casting to EA.ConnectorTag solved the issue.
