[SOLVED] Java API. Method parameter multiplicty

[gervais.b]

Hello,

I have a java application who use the EA bridge to generate a single file from a lot of diagrams.
Into the generated file I would like to write if a method parameter is required or not. For that, I want to read the parameter multiplicity (if lower bound is >0, it is required).
But At this time, I'm unable to read this information and cannot see anything about that from the documentation.

Could you, please, help me to read the paramtere multiplicity ?

Thanks a lot.

EA version 9.2.920

You need to query t_xref

Create an empty EAP with one operation that has multiplicity. Now you find an entry in t_xref with name CustomProperties. The Description contains the (a bit cryptic) information you need. The Client is the guid of the operation paramter.

Thanks a lot.

For a more complete response, the "t_xref" contains a "Description" column.
The content of this column is a plain text who contains a markup where each tag start with "@+tagname=" and end with "@END+tagname;".

Reformatted sample :

Code: [Select]

@PROP=
  @NAME=lower@ENDNAME;
  @TYPE=Integer@ENDTYPE;
  @VALU=1@ENDVALU;
  @PRMT=@ENDPRMT;
@ENDPROP;
@PROP=
  @NAME=upper@ENDNAME;
  @TYPE=UnlimitedNatural@ENDTYPE;
  @VALU=1@ENDVALU;
  @PRMT=@ENDPRMT;
@ENDPROP;
In my case it is the property with "@NAME=[highlight]lower[/highlight]@ENDNAME;" who hold the requested "@VALU=[highlight]1[/highlight]@ENDVALU;"



In case you didn't know that before (like me), the ".eap" file can be opened by "Ms Access".
