The Model Driven Generation (MDG) Integration for Eclipse and Enterprise Architect (EA) brings the modeling capabilities of Enterprise Architect to the IDE of Eclipse.

Editing your EA models is provided directly in Eclipse and, with one click, Java or C++ code (or also other languages) can be automatically generated. But also reverse engineering existing source code into UML models is possible. After connecting your EA models to Java, C++, or other languages, models and code are live synchronized. If you change your model elements, the modifications are automatically updating the dedicated source code and vice versa. Thus, a full round-trip engineering process is provided.

The EA projects are visualized in an own Eclipse view as depicted on the right side of the screenshot below. Next to this view, EA’s UML editor is depicted. The connected source code, i.e., Java in our case, can be maintained inside the workspace of Eclipse as depicted on the left side of this screenshot. By selecting a model element it can be easily navigated to the dedicated position in the Java code.

For more information including the installation guidelines and the user guide we kindly refer to the website of the Sparx Systems.

The idea for this was born out of a bet between Daniel Siegl from LieberLieber and the guys from the Merapi-Team from the Ostfalia University. The goal was, to create a somehow funny video, that explains the UML Statechart diagramm in under 10 minutes. Have fun!

Alexander Schölzhorn und Daniel Siegl unterstützten Schüler der Wiener HTL Spengergasse mit Know-how und Bauteilen in einem Praxisprojekt bei der Realisierung eines ferngesteuerten Autos. Sie verwendeten dabei die aktuelle Amuse-Version und mussten Infrarot-Abstandssensoren einbauen, um das Fahrzeug vor dem Zusammenprall mit Hindernissen zu schützen. Nach einigen Schwierigkeiten mit der Hardware zeigte die Vorführung im LieberLieber-Büro, dass die Lösung der Aufgaben letztlich gelungen ist. Der Applaus des LieberLieber-Teams spornt das HTL-Trio Felix Dunda, Manuel Spieler (nicht im Video zu sehen) und Andreas Scharl sicher zu weiteren Höchstleistungen an…Smiley

All the time the same issue: what window shall I use for typing code in the Enterprise Architect: the input window at the top named “Behavior” or the input window at the bottom named “Initial Code”??

To complete the confusion: the property tab also has been named “Behavior”

Behavior vs initial code

The property dialog has been changed between EA 8.0 and EA 9.0, the issue has remain. Summary If you want that EA considers your code during code generation please note:

  • for class operations use “Initial Code:” input window for manual coding
  • for class operations use “Behavior” window for linking it to a behavior only
  • for state operations use “Behavior” window only for everything

If you want to understand the reason behind that, see below for explanation:

By the way, the AMUSE 2.0 (coming soon) provides a number of really helpful validation rules, e.g. in that case AMUSE warns the user  about the code will be ignored by the code generation

This royalty free addin was built for Developers to speed up Enterprise Architect Development. It includes a couple of plugins and tools to ease the developer’s life by e.g. unvealing properties hidden by EA.

New in this version:

  • ElementDetails: all collections are loaded in-depth (except Element- or Package- Collections). Therefore you open an element and see it’s operations and their parameters.
    There’s also an option to display the database-record of the current element or package.
  • Filtergram: find objects in the current diagram by any property (only non-collections are supported yet)
  • eaLauncher: now supports addin-registrations in Local Machine hive introduced with EA 9.0.

For more details see the documentation.

If you already installed Version 1.0 (from here): there is no need to uninstall. Version 1.2.1 will replace previous versions automatically.

Requirements: .NET 3.5 & Enterprise Architect 8 or above.

Downloads are here:
Setup: v1.2.1
Documentation: Overview
Demo-Video: 1080i (taken from v1.0)

CaliberRM – Enterprise Architect Integration Add-In

On the 16th of June 2011 Dunstan Thomas will be hosting another free webinar.
The subject for this webinar will be the CaliberRM / Enterprise Architect Integration Add-In designed by Dunstan Thomas.

Introduction

CaliberRM is a requirements management tool from Microfocus and is widely used by organisations to manage their corporate requirements.
Enterprise Architect is a modelling tool focusing on UML and Business Process Modelling from SparxSystems and is used extensively by organisations for all their modelling needs.
A common need is for corporations to manage traceability between their Models and their Requirements. Whilst Enterprise Architect can capture Requirements it is not really a Requirements Management tool per se, and CaliberRM has no modelling functionality at all.
The objective of this Add-In is therefore to implement an integration bridge between the two products, specifically the ability to import and synchronise Requirements from CaliberRM into Enterprise Architect modelling projects where the traceability can be managed and reported.

Agenda

The agenda for this webinar is as follows:

  • Why the add-in has been created
  • Overview of add-in design
  • The functionality provided
  • Demonstration of the add-in
  • Next steps in development
  • Availability
Register now
