Currently implemented new Features:

• smaller and faster Setup
• Single Step Simulation
• Sub and extended Diagrams will be opened on simulation
• Simulation stops if user switches Diagram
• improved external Reference feature (easier for .net implementations)
• Possibility to update Referenced (easier for .net implementations)
• Testcases can  be defined via contraints and are taken into account during simulation
• AMUSE Addin Window in Enterprise Architect 8.0 is now dockable
• Toolbar gives for better usability than the previous context menus

It can also be downloaded.

We are still working on other new Features like the possibility to simulate Activity Diagrams – and a HTTP Bridge to connect Embedded Hardware….

Other than that we are working on a showcase for Windows CE and Lego Mindstorms….

Never seen it bevor

Just checked witch file was responsible for this,… seems like VS doesn’t like the embedded MDG Technology file (XML) of Enterprise Architect.

With this GUI you can easily generate the commands needed in commandLine. It also handles dependencies of the possible parameters and stuff. So if you are using eaCommand, you might be interested in taking a look at this piece of software, which is also offered for free.

(see details for screenshot & download)

Requirements:

• .NET Framework 2.0
• Enterprise Architect
• eaCommand (get it here: LINK)

Download: eaCommandGui (Version 0.8.5)

Updates dieser Version beinhaltet:

• verbesserte Handling der Trigger
• die StateMachine Engine Klassen wurden ausgelagert.
• und derzeit arbeiten wir an einer direkten Einbettung mit Hilfe der neuen EA Addin Windows

aber ACHTUNG:

Nach einem Test haben wir herausgefunden das EA 8.0 Build 855 einen minor Bug enthält bezüglich der Call Behavoir Generierung (genauer gesagt das anlegen der Do/Entry/Exit Actions). Dieser wurde schnell von Australien wieder behoben in der neuen Version. Der raten wir sofort Build 856 zu installieren.

English:

We also got a version of AMUSE for Enterprise Architect 8.0.

New Features:

• better handling of the new Trigger in EA 8.0
• StateMachine Engine Classes are now stored externally.
• currently we’r working to embed AMUSE directly into EA with the new EA Addin Windows

CAUTION:

After some testing we found that EA 8.0 Build 855 has a minor Bug regarding the codegeneration for Call Behavoir (to be exact the generation of the Do/Entry/Exit actions). Australia fixed this issue pretty fast and the new version is good to go. We advise you to skip 855 and directly install Build 856.

So here is the standard answer:

1. MS .NET Framework 2.0
2. Enterprise Architect 7.5.840 (System Engineer, Ultimate)
3. A valid license (at least for a trial period)

If somebody ends up with a better interpretation please share it in the comments section.

So I did some investigation, and the result was like this: FOREACH creates an instance of an IEnumerator, which keeps state through the course of the FOREACH loop. It runs in an own instance, and repeatedly call’s Current() and Next() operations.
On the other side, “FOR” is some “stupid” thing, running through the object’s list. It’s not running in an own instance, and allocating memory is the user’s responsibility.

The more, iterating through a collection using FOR should include the use of Count() which keeps track of how many elements are currently contained. IEnumerable does not.

Conclusion: when programming COM-Objects (like EA), it might be better, using FOR instead of FOREACH.

Note: rumour has it, that many of the types in System.Collection.Generic will not allocate an enumerator on FOREACH. The following post shows exactly in what circumstances an enumerator is allocated on the heap:

Retrieving the COM class factory for component with CLSID {8667FE5E-6D96-400A-AF0A-15C29F94DFCD} failed due to the following error: 80080005.

The code suggests lack of permission to use the COM interface from within the windows service.

Solution: you must configure DCom (EA.App)

1) Open COM-Components-Window and navigate to DCOM, EA.App
2) right-click EA.App and go to properties
3) go to security tab and customize Launch Permissions
4) add a user permitted to launch EA and grant full permissions
5) in EA.App Properties move on to Identity-Tab, and change user to the one entered before in Launch permissions

( see also: Documentation of software projects )

Mit den vom COM-Interface zur Verfügung gestellten Funktionen lassen sich sowohl einzelne Dateien, als auch ganze Verzeichnisse importieren, und daraus ein HTML-Report erstellen.

Um die Arbeit zu vereinfachen, haben wir eine Applikation für die Kommandozeile geschrieben, die den kompletten Prozeß vom Anlegen eines Projektes, über den Import der Dateien bis zum Erstellen des Reports übernimmt.

Einzige Voraussetzung: Enterprise Architect muß installiert sein. Ob dieses am Client läuft, oder auf einem Server, ist egal.

Anbei der Screenshot des Reports nach dem import der eaCommand-Assembly (C#).

Wenn die Applikation auf einem Server laufen soll, interessieren Sie sich eventuell auch für diesen Artikel:
: Running Enterprise Architect on a server

Single files or whole directories can be imported into a (new) EA-Project via COM-Interface, and a HTML-Report is generated afterwards.

To ease things, LieberLieber has written a Commandline-Application to cover the whole workflow from importing files to generating the HTML-Report.

Only requirement is an installed version of Enterprise Architect on either a client or server machine.

See attached the screenshot of the report after importing eaCommand-Assembly (C#).
