Model Element References

Plug-in & Open API

How can I retrieve all the file references associated with a
model element? I know i can retrieve Tagged Values and assume
there must be a method available to retrieve the references.

Hi Dieter,

The following code lists the file references added to a use case. Please try:

            IReference[] references = useCase.toReferenceArray();
            for (IReference reference : references) {
                if (reference.getType() == IReference.TYPE_FILE) {
                    // here are the FILE reference(s)
                }
            }

Best regards,

Hi Jick,
thanks for your reply.
I solved it by:
IReference[] alreadyExistingReferences = ((IArchiMateApplicationComponent) existingApplicationComponent).toReferenceArray();
ArrayList <ArrayList > existingReferencedObject = new ArrayList <ArrayList >();
