You can manage code engineering through the Code Engineering Sets in the Model BrowserThe Code Engineering Sets tree contains the list of all sets created in the project as well as instruments for managing those sets.


To add a new set


  1. Choose New from the Code Engineering Sets shortcut menu.
  2. Choose the language you want:
    • Java
    • Java Bytecode
    • C++
    • CORBA IDL
    • DDL (Cloudscape, DB2, Microsoft Access, Microsoft SQL Server, MySQL, Oracle, Pervasive, Pointbase, PostgreSQL, Sybase). For DDL, the Cameo Data Modeler plugin is required
    • XML Schema, the Cameo Data Modeler plugin is required


Edit sets in the Round Trip Set dialog.


To open the Round Trip Set dialog


  • Right-click the selected set and choose Edit from the set shortcut menu.
  • Select the set and press Enter.

The Round Trip Set dialog allows you to manage entities to be added/removed to your set.

Round Trip Set dialog. Add files tab

Specify the Working Directory for displaying source files. This option indicates files and required sub-directories where a code generation output goes. Type a path manually or browse in the directory tree by clicking the  button.

The Working Package box allows you to define any package for reverse output or code generation. A model is reversed or code generated from this specified package.

You can only select or change the working package prior to the addition of files from the working directory to the code engineering set.

The Round Trip Set dialog has two tabs: Add Files and Add Data from Model.

The Add Files tab helps you manage the source code files involved in your code engineering set.

Element nameFunction
All filesLists directories with the source files for the set.
Files of typeContains possible file name extensions for the chosen language.

The Add Data from Model tab helps you manage elements located in the UML model.

Round Trip Set dialog. Add data from the model tab.

The All Data list contains the hierarchy of UML model packages with model elements (or other packages) inside. Your code engineering set can be combined out of model and code elements. The following buttons are available in the Round Trip Set dialog:

AddThe selected file in the All Files or All Data list is added to the set. 
Add AllAll files in the opened or selected directory are added to the set.
Add RecursivelyAll files in the selected directory and its subdirectories are added to the set.
RemoveRemoves the selected entity from the set.
Remove AllRemoves all entities from the set.
