Missing method

Plug-in & Open API
1

Hi,
i tried to develop a plugin that can launch an instant reverse, after several operations.
But when i get the conversionModelManager like its showed on Javadoc, i can’t access to the method “instantReverse”.

So i’m asking if this method still exist? and/or do i have an other solution to perform my task.

edit:
It is possible to have an update of the Open API javadoc please?

Thanks
My best regards

Hi Paps,

As reply to your “edit”:

edit:
It is possible to have an update of the Open API javadoc please?

Actually the one in our website is the latest one:

You could not find the method “InstantReverse” due to deletion before, our engineers will add it back and they are working on this.

Hi Paps,

For getting diagram via OpenAPI:

  1. All diagram project:
    ApplicationManager.instance().getProjectManager().getProject().toDiagramArray()

  2. Get active diagram:
    ApplicationManager.instance().getDiagramManager().getActiveDiagram()

P.S. here is some further information about Diagram, DiagramElement and Model (MetaModelElement) in OpenAPI:
A project contains many models (e.g. a Class is a model, a Package is a model, an Attribute of a class is also a model).

  • Diagram: diagram
  • DiagramElement: Models are shown on Diagram by DiagramElement

When you get a Diagram, you can get DiagramElement by:
Diagram.to{DiagramElement/Shape/Connector}Array
Then you can get Model from DiagramElement.
