In order to retrieve the value of extended attributes coming from other extensions, you have to prefix with .D
:
%.D:ea_b%
I didn't know it, I found it in the online docs.
Domanda
Let's say i have two Extensions attached to some Powerdesigner model:
In xem_a is Extended Attribute ea_a and in xem_b is Extended Attribute ea_b. In xem_a i can create Criterion with condition:
%ea_a%==true
, but i want to create Criterion in xem_a referencing Extended Attribute ea_b from xem_b. I tried:
%xem_b.ea_b%==true
and some similar expressions but without success. Is it even possible to reference Extended Attribute from another XEM in Criterion?
