RE: [Toad Data Modeler - Scripting & Customizations Discussion Forum] Hi, I wrote a Macro to add Entities into an Active Workspace that meet a naming criteria, and then add missing relationship lines, And I had to make this 2 separate macros to get it

Hi Daril

Thanks as always,

This now works 100%

I am not sure if it is the most efficient way to do it, but it works and does what I want and does not blow up

So there appeared

  1. Adding relationships to a shape for which the workspace was not setmodified to true caused issues

  2. Using Substring multiple time vs once and using variable caused issue

This is my final Code

Thanks Again

function CreateCopyShape(WorkSpaceMain, WorkSpace, Object, WSType) {

var k, ObjectShape, MainObjectShape;

ObjectShape **=** WorkSpace.NewWorkSpaceShape(WSType, Object);

**for** (k **=**

0; k < WorkSpaceMain.ShapeList.Count; k**++**) {

    MainObjectShape **=** WorkSpaceMain.ShapeList.GetObject(k);

    **if** ((MainObjectShape.ObjectType **==** WSType)

        && (MainObjectShape.ParentBaseID **==** ObjectShape.ParentBaseID)) {

        ObjectShape.**Left** **=** MainObjectShape.**Left**;

        ObjectShape.Top **=** MainObjectShape.Top;

        ObjectShape.Width **=** MainObjectShape.Width;

        ObjectShape.Height **=** MainObjectShape.Height;

        break;

    }

}

}

RE: Hi, I wrote a Macro to add Entities into a Active Workspace that meet a naming criteria, and then add missing relationship lines, And I had to make this 2 seperate macros to get it to work, Can you see if I did something wrong

Hi Anthony,

if you want mark model as modified (so save model icon will be enabled) please call

Model.SetModified(true);

To memory error. I’m not sure how substring method works with string that is shorter than 4 in your case. Could you try store substring(0,4) of parent and child entity to variable before if statement and determine that is not problem when child entity has short name (less than 4)? What kind of memory error is it?

Thanks

Daril
