Automation Interface, Add-Ins and Tools / Re: Adding Tags via Javascript

I think that is what happened:
I initialize it like this:

Code: [Select]

rootElement= Repository.GetTreeSelectedObject();
   
DumpElements("", rootElement);and it seems this sometimes does not work and I get null. After checking if the tags exist it runs through:

Code: [Select]

if(tags!=null){
newTag = tags.AddNew(taggedValueName, taggedValueValue);
}

Thanks to all the answers. I was not aware the getTreeSelectedObject was this dangerous.

Code: [Select]

function SetElementTaggedValue(indent, theElement, taggedValueName, taggedValueValue)
{
var currentElement as EA.Element;
currentElement = theElement;
var tags as EA.Collection;
tags = currentElement.TaggedValues;
var newTag as EA.TaggedValue;
newTag = tags.AddNew(taggedValueName, taggedValueValue);
and it is called like this:

Code: [Select]

var currentElement as EA.Element;
currentElement = theElement;
var childElementEnumerator = new Enumerator(currentElement.Elements);


// Tag the current element with its alias
SetElementTaggedValue(indent, currentElement, "old_ID", currentElement.Alias);

I tried to do it that way and added this:

Code: [Select]

var currentElement as EA.Element;
currentElement = theElement;
var tags as EA.Collection;
tags = currentElement.TaggedValues;
var newTag as EA.TaggedValue;
newTag = tags.AddNew(taggedValueName, taggedValueValue);
Now I get a similar error in your code:

Error
Test Scripts.AliasToTag
tags is undefined, Line: 106

which is this line:
newTag = tags.AddNew(taggedValueName, taggedValueValue);

The reason must be somewhere else...

When I try to tag elements in a model I get this problem:

Error
Test Scripts.AliasToTag
currentElement.TaggedValues is undefined, Line: 115

This error occurs when I try to tag the elements:

Code: [Select]

var currentElement as EA.Element;
currentElement = theElement;

var taggedValue as EA.TaggedValue;
taggedValue = null;

if(currentElement != null)
{
// Output the current element's name and alias
Session.Output(indent + "Element=" + currentElement.Name + ", Type=" + currentElement.Type + ", Alias=" + currentElement.Alias);

        taggedValue = currentElement.TaggedValues.AddNew(taggedValueName, taggedValueValue);
currentElement.TaggedValues.Refresh();
taggedValue.Update();
}
in this line:
taggedValue = currentElement.TaggedValues.AddNew(taggedValueName, taggedValueValue);

Bugs and Issues / Cannot lock packages

« on: January 03, 2018, 08:22:27 pm »

For some time now I cannot lock a package: The right click menu has no points to lock packages.
I can only see "Merge package with XMI File"

Did I disable this by accident and if so where?
