Hi!
Let's say we have formal modules A and B, a link module A2B and set default (mandatory) link set pairings to module A and B for links between modules A and B. So if we create a link from an object of module A to module B and vice versa the link will be created in the default link sets. That's ok so far. But now I want to "guide" the user only to create links outgoing from module A to module B as target. He must not create links from module B to module A. But how can I implement this restriction in DXL? Unfortunately I have no idea how to do it. Can anybody help me? Many thanks in advance, Oliver ------------------------- Greetings,<BR>Oliver<BR><BR><BR>Oliver Roepke<BR>Axis Engineering AG, Munich |

When you add a linkset pairing, it has direction, so if you also check the mandatory box then the user should not be able to create a link in the wrong direction. You should also check the "only allow links specified in the above list" check box.
It is also a good idea to create and then soft-delete (do not purge) a "DOORS Links" link module in every folder within your project. This prevents spurious linksets being created by users. ------------------------- Tony Goodman http://www.smartdxl.com |

Hi Tony,
many thanks for your kind help. As an DOORS resp. DXL beginner I missunderstood the definition of the default linkset pairing a little bit. I thought that since links are always bi-directional a default linkset pairing has to be defined for every direction of the link regardless of the starting point of the link creation. Following your advice I simply deleted the not wanted default link set pairing and everything works as required. I checked the option "only allow links specified in the above list" before, too. But I will additionally delete all "DOORS links" link modules since I predefined default link modules for any link direction explicitely regarding our RE process. Again many thanks for your help.
