Python imports are NOT refreshed when regenerating source code

[jean.lamon...@gmail.com]

Hello M+ Support Team,

Whenever using the Python code generator and when classes have been renamed, I observed that the Python import statements are NOT refreshed when regenerating source code over existing source-code. However, when deleting the related and existing Python source-files, the import statements are properly generated.

PS: I am using the latest version 2.5.1 of the M+ Astah plugin.

Thanks in advance for your support :)

Hi,

M+ keeps the contents of the User Code Area (UCA) if the UCA exists.

Note: The "User Code Area" is an area enclosed by "˅" and "˄".

To explain in detail, M+ generates/regenerates code according to the following rules:

• For new output UCAs, M+ outputs import statements to the UCA, based on the relation and dependency info.
  
• For existing UCAs, M+ keeps the contents of the UCA without editing.

However, we understand that it is useful to automatically update the import statements when regenerating code.

We have added your request for improvement.

Thank you for the feedback.
