通过 COM 访问 PowerDesigner 存储库模型

Accessing PowerDesigner Repository Models via COM

我一直在尝试使用 COM API 直接从 PowerDesigner 存储库获取实时模型,但没有成功。这是我在 VBA 中尝试过的内容:

Set pd = CreateObject("PowerDesigner.Application")
Set conn = pd.RepositoryConnection
conn.Open "", "", "ShhMahPW"

Set model = conn.FindChildByPath("Program/Project/Logical Models/MahLOM", PdOOM_Classes.cls_Model)

MsgBox model.ShortDescription 'This fails because model is null!

同样,我一直在使用 Java COM 桥在 Eclipse 中尝试同样的事情:

Application pd = this.getApplicationHook();

//Make live connection to proxy repository
RepositoryConnection conn = new RepositoryConnection( pd.GetRepositoryConnection() );
conn.Open( "", "", ConnectionParams.PASSWORD );


BaseObject model = conn.FindChildByPath( "Program/Project/Logical Models/MahLOM", 
                   PdOOM_Classes.cls_Model );

//Null model, COMException: "Action can not be performed. result = -2147467259"
System.out.println( model.GetShortDescription() ) 

有人可以建议一种深入存储库的好方法吗?我已经能够确认我与存储库有连接,然后在该顶层列出 children。我正在努力深入研究根级别以外的文件夹。谢谢!

我知道我要从存储库中提取的模型已经存在于我的本地工作区中。实际上,这是对本地工作空间模型的更新。要执行此操作,可以使用方法 UpdateFromRepository()

那么我能做的就是获取本地 PowerDesigner 模型的句柄,然后在检索子项之前调用更新。请注意从 BaseObjectBaseModel 的转换是为了刷新...

private BaseObject getModel(){

    Application pd = this.getApplicationHook();

    model = pd.OpenModel(this.basePath + this.modelName);
    System.out.println( "Retrieving model updates from repository...  ");

    RepositoryConnection conn = new RepositoryConnection( pd.GetRepositoryConnection() );
    conn.Open( "", "", ConnectionParams.PASSWORD);

    boolean success = new BaseModel(model).UpdateFromRepository();

    if( success )
        System.out.println( "Update successful!" );
    else
        System.out.println( "Update failed. Check PowerDesigner settings." );

    return this.model;
}

您的主要问题是搜索 ChildKind 应该是 Cls_RepositoryModel,而不是 PdOOM_Class.cls_Model

   option explicit
   ' assuming we're already connected
   if RepositoryConnection.Connected then
      Descent RepositoryConnection,""
   end if
   dim c
   set c = RepositoryConnection.FindChildByPath("Folder_7/ConceptualDataModel_1", Cls_RepositoryModel)
   if not c is nothing then
      output "*** found object " & c.classname
   end if

sub Descent(obj,ofs)
   output ofs & obj.name & " - " & obj.ObjectType & " - " & obj.ClassName
   if obj.ObjectType = "RepositoryModel" then exit sub
   if obj.PermanentID = 3 then exit sub ' to save time, don't enter Library
   if not obj.HasCollection("ChildObjects") then exit sub
   dim c
   for each c in obj.ChildObjects
      Descent c,ofs & "   "
   next
end sub
