AW: (ROSE) Add-In

[Kopetzky, Volker]

Title: AW: (ROSE) Add-In

Nagesh,

 

merry christmas (afterwards) to you, too!

 

Personally I tend to manage properties in the following way:

 

- Create the properties by using the model.DefaultModelProperties object.

- editing prp files only to package the properties

 

As an example I upped my simple property manager to:

ftp://volker-kopetzky.de/rational/PropDef.zip

This runs only with MS Access 2000 or later.

(however, there are exported cls files, so you can reuse it

 - without warranty! - in VB).

 

About the behaviour that you experienced:

- don't use spaces or special chars in the enumeration values

- use comma (,) as separator!

 

Best regards & a happy new year to all!

Volker

PS: I just configured the ftp access, it should be online tomorrow.

    If you have connection problems, please give me a hint.

Hi John, and All

Belated Wishes for Christmas, "MERRY CHRISTMAS"

and Advanced wishes for new year, "Happy New Year"

Have a great coming year to all U People

Enjoy

 

I have a small question regarding REI

 

If I Change .pty file, with some more properties, having values more than one, i.e., Attribute_set

then,

a) what will be the values for the previous object model (existing model)

     If i open the model, and say Update the model properties accordingly with my new .pty file

    then also, it is giving some numerical value in the drop-downs for the properties

 

    whats the solution

b) if I say replace the model properties with the new .pty file, then it updates all the properties correctly

    

c) is the way i am doing is correct, or any better solutions

 

Awaiting for ur help

Thanks and Regards

Nagesh H R

Check boxes are not possible in the top level menus.  Check boxes can be done in the context menu (see example at http://www.therationaledge.com/rosearchitect/mag/archives/9904/extend.html).

 

If the sole purpose is to have some "global" properties or settings, then try using properties at the project/model level.  You'll have to use property files (*.pty) to define these properties and then use the tools/property/add property menu option to add them to the current model.  Once this is done, you'll be able to see the properties in the GUI that displays properties for the model.  The only catch here is that property files are undocumented.  Fortunately, there are a lot of examples - check out *.pty in the subdirectories below Rose (there's one for every add-in).

You should store the informations in you own property sheet.
You can get it via "Tools | Options... | <YourSheetName>" or "F4 | <YourSheetName>".
So that information is saved with your model and it�s model dependent.

Another way is, that your addin stores that information in its own information base (file, database, registry). So it�s model independent. But I don�t know to show that checkbox in Rose menu. So the only solution I know is to write your own dialog. Sorry

I don�t think, that you can do that. Because you have do save boolean properties in your model and show them in the menu.

But you can store these information in your own property sheet.
Additional you can write a custom specification dialog for that properties.

You are right here.
But you should explain your problem in a little more special way.
