See the general library documentation on the use of Classes. The following example creates and opens a repository object:

private void button1_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)

{

 EA.Repository r = new EA.RepositoryClass();

 r.OpenFile("c:\\eatest.eap");

}

1.

Copy the file SSJavaCOM.dll from the Java API subdirectory of your installed directory (usually Program Files/Sparx Systems/EA) into any location within the Windows PATH. For example, the windows\system32 directory.

3.

All of the Classes described in the documentation are in the package org.sparx. See the general library documentation for their use. The following example creates and opens a repository object.
 

public void OpenRepository()

{

   org.sparx.Repository r = new org.sparx.Repository();

   r.OpenFile("c:\\eatest.eap");

}
