ID of current diagram

[aljazjelen]

Hi everyone,

I would like to use a "Model View" object where you can write an sql query to show the results. With it, I want to show a content of each diagram (currently selected) and their dependencies.
But to do it properly, I would need to somehow find the ID of the diagram, which is currently being viewed (not neccessarly selected on the tree!).

Can someone help me with SQL, to somehow:

• query through diagrams but only select the one which is currently in scope
• check all elements of type "Class" and return their dependencies

I am quite new to this, so if you have any additional learning material, I would appreciate it!

Regards

I'm not sure if there's some (new) native #-macro to get the diagram in focus. Otherwise I think you need an add-in search to get hold of that. Manually you could Alternatively you could Alt-Shift-G to the browser entry and use Copy/GUID to get the diagram guid which you can also utilize for that query.

Hi Q!

So most likely there is no other option. Of course, one option would be making document fragments and generating report as well.
But I would like to have it interactively.

The reason: We are having a very complicated system with many independencies. For this reason, we are building a system in modular manner. And would be great to have an overview of all dependencies within a function diagram.
Relationship Matrix is cool, but it lacks the possibility to "filter empty cells"

However, thanks for reply!

You can find the list of available macro's here:

But I'm not sure if all of those are useful in a modelview context.
We use modelviews on our BPMN diagrams to show a RASCI matrix between activities and roles.
We ended up simply putting the Business Process GUID in the query like this:

Code: [Select]

select bpa.ea_guid as CLASSGUID, bpa.Object_Type as CLASSTYPE, bpa.name as Activity,
r.RoleName
, CASE WHEN r.RASCI = 'R' THEN r.RASCI ELSE NULL END as R
, CASE WHEN r.RASCI = 'A' THEN r.RASCI ELSE NULL END as A
, CASE WHEN r.RASCI = 'S' THEN r.RASCI ELSE NULL END as S
, CASE WHEN r.RASCI = 'C' THEN r.RASCI ELSE NULL END as C
, CASE WHEN r.RASCI = 'I' THEN r.RASCI ELSE NULL END as I
from t_object bp
left join t_object pl on pl.ParentID = bp.Object_ID
and pl.Stereotype = 'Pool'
left join t_object ln on ln.ParentID in (pl.Object_ID, bp.Object_ID)
and ln.Stereotype = 'Lane'
inner join t_object bpa on bpa.ParentID in (ln.Object_ID, pl.Object_ID, bp.Object_ID)
and bpa.Stereotype = 'Activity'
left join t_objectproperties tv on tv.Object_ID = bpa.Object_ID
and tv.Property = 'calledActivityRef'
left join t_object ca on ca.ea_guid = tv.Value
left join
(select c.Start_Object_ID, ro.Name as RoleName, tv.VALUE as RASCI from t_connector c
inner join t_object ro on ro.Object_ID = c.End_Object_ID
and ro.Stereotype = 'PartnerRole'
left join t_connectortag tv on tv.ElementID = c.Connector_ID
and tv.Property = 'RA(S)CI'
where c.Stereotype = 'trace') r on r.Start_Object_ID = bpa.Object_ID
inner join t_diagram d on d.ParentID = bp.Object_ID
inner join t_diagramobjects do on do.Diagram_ID = d.Diagram_ID
and do.Object_ID = bpa.Object_ID
where bp.ea_guid = '{616040A4-201F-4fa9-9EDA-448597DDD9BA}'
order by do.RectLeft, do.RectTop desc, bpa.Name, CASE WHEN r.RASCI = 'R' THEN 1
WHEN r.RASCI = 'A' THEN 2
WHEN r.RASCI = 'S' THEN 3
WHEN r.RASCI = 'C' THEN 4
WHEN r.RASCI = 'I' THEN 5 END

Hi Geert and qwerty!

I have approached the problem in a different way. Now I will manually chance the GUIDs where relevant (at the end, there are only about 7-8 diagrams)

Thanks for support
