Writing values to repository (newbie)

[Tage Korsdal Nielsen]

New to AddIns and even new to c#

Parsing Repository is all fine - but how can I get values written back. Say I want to change the Time field of an Effort element:

I've tried this:

Code: [Select]

element.Time = value;
element.Update();

But it changes nothing back in EA.

Also tried adding:

Code: [Select]

eaRepo.AdviseElementChange(elm.ElementID);

where elm is the container of aforementioned Effort.

No luck.

You maybe need to call Repository.RefreshModelView (long PackageID) to see the update in the browser.

If you are interested in more think about buying Thomas Kilians eBook Scripting EA.

Also a good resource is Geerds 'Your first Addin in 10 minutes' or so in the community.
