add-in an element

[eliana]

Salve a tutti, ho un problema con l' Enterprise Architect e spero che qualcuno di voi ci sia già passato in modo da darmi un aiuto.
Devo aggiungere un elemento in un diagram ma per aggiungerlo ho bisogno di un ID da assegnarli. Il problema è che l' Id è univoco e dovrebbe essere creato automaticamente. In che modo posso dargli un ID univoco?

Hi everybody
I have a question to pose you. I have to add a new element to a diagram by code, but to do this I need to give an Id to this new element. The problem is that the Id has to be unique and It should be created automatically. How can I give an Id to the element if I don't know it?
Sorry for my english  
Thank you

Eliana,

If you are using the EA automation model, the element insertion methods will add the ref GUID's automatically.

If you aren't ... you should be.

If you still aren't, as long as you generate a GUID that will not collide with any of the EA generated ones (insert weeks of work here) it appears to work.  (here's a tip - no guarantee though - replace the least variant part of the generated GUID with a string which identifies "you" - so far this has worked for me   )

Perhaps use the VB or C# NewGuid function.
