Code Engineering Options for all Sets in your Project

Choose Project from the Options menu. The Project Options dialog box appears. You can set the Code Engineering options in the Project Options dialog. The Project Options dialog box has two main collections of customizable options, represented by the hierarchy tree on the left side of the dialog box. The figure below illustrates Code Engineering related options.

Code Engineering options in the Project Options dialog.

In the option list, select Code engineering and specify the following items:

Item nameDescription
Default Working DirectoryEnter the name of your working directory.
Default Working PackageDefine any package for the reverse output or code generation. Your model will be reversed or the code will be generated from this specified package.
Default Paths for ReferencesAdd specific profiles, used projects, or libraries to define where to search for paths for references during reverse/code generation.
Default EncodingClick to open a list of available encodings.
Default languageWhen selected, the syntax checker of the selected language runs while Code Engineering is executed.
Use Syntax CheckerWhen selected, the syntax checker runs while Code Engineering is executed.
Directory for Temporal FilesYou can specify Active Directory, System, or you can select another directory.

The following table describes other Code Engineering options:

OptionElement NameDescription
Code Generation

Set code generation options using the fields listed in the right side of the Project options dialog box. The Code generation area contains boxes with the same functionality as the Code generations options dialog box. See Generating Code.

Reverse
Set reverse options for all reverse actions of the project using the options listed on the right side of the Project options dialog box. The Reverse Options area contains boxes that have the same functionality as in the Reverse options dialog box.

Generate spacesGenerate spaces inside an assignment and other operators.

Generate empty documentationComment brackets are placed in your code, unless class in the model has no documentation.

Automatic “import” generationAutomatic generation of "import" sentences according to classes referenced in the generated class.

Class count to generate import on demandSpecify the number of classes imported from a single package until all statements importing a single class are substituted with a statement importing an entire package.

Documentation Processor

After selecting the Java Doc processor, click    to open the Documentation Properties dialog box.


StyleTwo styles are available for documentation.

Use CLASSPATH

The button is activated. Search a classpath for importing sentence generation in the Set classpath dialog box.


Click Get from System to get the CLASSPATH variable defined by the operating system or click Add and select the classpath directory.

Header

Add a specific header to all your code files. Click  and enter the header text in the Header dialog. You can also define $DATE, $AUTHOR, and $TIME in the header.

C++ Language Options

Set the generated code style for C++ programming languages.

Generate opening bracket in new line

Opens a bracket in the newly generated line. 

Generate spaces

Spaces inside an assignment and other operators are generated. 

Generate empty documentation

Comment brackets are placed in your code, unless the class in the model has no documentation. 


Generate methods body into class

Select check box to generate methods body into class.


Generate field initialization into classGenerates the value initialization for the attribute.

Automatically remove unnecessary usage relationship Tracks the use of classes and removes the unnecessary include directives.

Documentation Style

Four styles are available for documentation.
