Programmatically add package member

[Anonymous]

Hi!
I'm working on a plugin and need to create packages due to namespaces. I've managed to create the package and the classes, but i cant figure out how to either move the class to the package, or better, to create it as a child directly.
Tips and tricks?

regards

I think you may find the exact details looking at the source of the plugins doing reverse engineering.

Generally when you call

CreateClass(AOwner: UMLNamespace): IUMLClass

on the ClassFactory you need to specify the parent namespace as the parameter.

I think i tried linking the package as the class owner but got a data type error.
Is the code for the C reverse engineering plugin available as reference?
It's ofc. another step to translate that into LabVIEW as my plugin is intended for, but anything helps. :)

Here is a tested sample code in C# that adds a class to the second package owned by the project (usually "Logical View")

IStarUMLApplication m_StarUMLApp = new WhiteStarUMLApplicationClass();    
// ...
IUMLProject prj = m_StarUMLApp.ProjectManager.Project;
IUMLNamespace owner = prj.GetOwnedElementAt(1) as IUMLNamespace;
IUMLFactory facto = m_StarUMLApp.UMLFactory;
facto.CreateClass(owner);

I got it to work with your code as reference, thanks!
