sometimes a red triangle appears over some (not all!) of my requirement artifacts that I have constructed before starting more detailed UML work and development. I have no idea what causes it or what it is meant to express. What's more, I cannot get rid of it. ;) As far as I know this has nothing to do with the UML or SysML specification - or does it? Can anyone explain? Thanks :) It has nothing to do with UML or SySML. What is says is that someone bookmarked the element. You may have done so by accident by pressing shift-spacebar. If you search the help file for "Manage Bookmarks" you will

How does one add a trigger to the "Properties-Constraints-Triggers" area of a state machine transition in Enterprise Architect? The quotes are how you get there manually within EA. What I've Tried Below, this actually results in the trigger being added to the state machine, but I need to link it to a specific transition. Variable stateMachine is of type EA.Element. EA.Element trigger = (EA.Element)stateMachine.Elements.AddNew("trigger", "Trigger"); State is of type EA.Element. connector is of type EA.Connector (the specific StateFlow transition that I'm trying to add the trigger to). All of

In Enterprise Architect when I model a class and specify the implementation language of the class, then use an instance of the class in a use case, the implementation language of the instance in the use case is not the implementation language of the class, but is the default. Is there a way to make Enterprise Architect use the set implementation language of the class for the implementation language of all instances of that class? There isn't an option to make instances follow the class language (but that's a good suggestion to send to Sparx), but you can set the default language for all new

I have imported a PHP source folder into Enterprise Architect. Now, I'd like to see the inheritance chain of any specific class. In other words, I'd like to see one big diagram displaying all relations of a class. Most classes are in folders separate from the parent/child class. How can I do that..? This was my reason for installing Enterprise Architect: I get confused within a lengthy and branched inheritance chain. It would be very disappointing if such a powerful tool that recognizes all relationships could not give an overview of these relationships. For example, I can see a class diagram

Does anyone have any thoughts on Rational Software Architect vs Sparx EA? Are there other tools I should be looking at? Specifically, I'm interested in the following; Adherance to some methodology (RUP, SOMF, etc.) -- we're not settled on one now, but need to pick one that suits a SoA architecture. Multi-modeling -- I need to model all the way from hardware (ideally with cost/spec tracking across physical and cloud) to deployment, classes/services, etc. Roundtrip -- reverse our code/data and then generate stubs as we add new classes to the model. NoSQL support Focus on code -- we're less data

I'm wondering if many users can work on the same Enterprise Architect file ? our professor said it can be done if we can host the file in a repository and then link it to windows ODBC ? I'm not sure what does that means. There are two ways to set up an EA project: stored in an .EAP file (accessed through the file system), or stored in a database (accessed through ODBC) The file actually contains a database, and EA provides functionality for migrating both ways between the two. An .EAP file can be accessed by several users simultaneously (with the file on a network drive), as of course a
