How is it possible to use parts of the C++ STL in Enterprise Architect? It would be nice to be able to specify certain class attributes as std::string or use std::auto_ptr (or even std::tr1::shared_ptr ) as types. Another interesting thing would be how one is able to integrate container-types like std::vector and std::map into EA. Gabor Herman I have taught how STL containers look like to EA, I guess it can be extended to stl pointers too: Forward engineering: You can define collection classes for different multiplicities globally in the language settings, or for a specific class of your

Situation I have a PHP project with lots of classes with lots of relationships in lots of folders following the Zend Naming Convention . I use the NetBeans IDE 7.1. I work under Windows 7. Goal I need to see a graphical representation of the class relationships, possibly in varying depths and varying degrees of complexity. Also, it would be nice if the classes in the diagram are clickable. I do not necessarily need to generate documentation. Attempts 1. Within NetBeans NetBeans is an awesome IDE with lots of features. In fact, it recognizes class dependencies, and it would be wise to assume

Does anyone know if there is a book about Sparx systems Enterprise Architect ? (besides sparx site and reference) Sparxsystems Central Europe offer their own book, based on Enterprise Archtect. Project Management with UML and Enterprise Architect ISBN-10:3-9502692-1-5 ISBN-13:978-3-9502692-1-5 An adoption to EA 8.0is is in work and will released end of Aug. 2010. Further Info http://www.sparxsystems.eu/ea-sparx-systems/ea-news/news-beitrag/article/new-book-released-project-management-with-uml-and-enterprise-architect/ There is a good book with a practical example. "Use case Driven Object

Enterprise Architect has a way to generate the documentation in HTML/RTF/etc. that you could publish, but you have to use its GUI to do that manually. When you have your *.eap files in a CVS/Subversion server, it would be useful to have a script that would check out daily the latest version and publish it in a web server. As long as I know, EA doesn't have a command line utility for this purpose. I found that you can automate almost anything using its COM interface, but that means it's necessary to write a small program to do that. Any ideas about the easiest/cleanest way to do that (without

We are automating the creation of requirement elements in EA through Add-in. But the problem is we are not able to import the images from the directory to Image manager and add the hyperlink to the Requirement Element Notes. So is there any API provide by Enterprise architect to Import the image from directory to Image manager and add the hyperlink to the Requirement Element Notes. EA stores images in t_image where ImageID is an arbitrary unique ID, Name is an arbitrary name, Type is "Bitmap" and Image contains the base64 encoded raw image data (png and bitmap are supported for sure, likely

I would like to open an EA session via Windows service and do some action behind the scenes. I use the Repository API, however, don't know how to initialize it correctly. EA.Repository repository = ?; repository.OpenFile(@"C:\test.eap"); repository.Exit(); Any ideas? the code sample below demonstrate how to open EA COM Object and open EA project file then get list of the project models // connect to EA COM object EA.Repository _repository = new EA.RepositoryClass(); // Open EA project file bool fileOpened = _repository.OpenFile(filePath); if(fileOpened) Collection models = _repository.Models;

I am working in a multi-user environment with models shared using CVS. The model is large with lots of packages. Sometimes, I have a package checked out without realising it, preventing others from working with the package. Is there some way I can list all the packages that I have checked out so that I can check in the ones I don't need? Enterprise Architect has a built-in query which exactly meets your needs: Open the "Find in Project" window by Ctrl+F. A search window will be displayed. On the top you will see a "search:" dropdown list which by default is set to "Simple". Choose the last

I am working on setting up a centralized repository to store enterprise architect (from sparx systems) generated artifacts for the team of 6-8 people to use. Initially thought of hosting a PostgreSQL database to store the artifacts centrally and the other option that came up was to use SVN. Looking at the EA documentation, not getting a clear idea on what are the pros and cons for the options in consideration. As compared to using SVN I have the following overheads while using a DBMS. Hosting and managing DBMS User provisioning and management for DBMS Artifact Versioning need to done
