Migrate ArchiMate 1.0 to ArchiMate 2.0
If you have created a model for ArchiMate 1.0, you can migrate all or part of it to ArchiMate 2.0 using the Automation Interface function Migrate(). This function updates the Tagged Values and, if required, stereotypes to ArchiMate for all elements, attributes, connectors and diagrams under the selected Package or element.
Example
The following VB script calls the Migrate() function to migrate the Package or element to ArchiMate 2.0:
Sub MigrateElement (sGUID, lngPackageID)
Dim proj as EA.Project
set proj = Repository.GetProjectInterface
proj.Migrate sGUID, "Archimate", "Archimate2"
'refresh the model
If lngPackageID<>0 Then
Repository.RefreshModelView (lngPackageID)
End If
End Sub
Sub MigrateSelectedItem
Dim selType
Dim selElement as EA.Element
Dim selPackage as EA.Package
selType = GetTreeSelectedItemType
If selType = 4 Then 'means Element
set selElement = GetTreeSelectedObject
MigrateElement selElement.ElementGUID, selElement.PackageID
MsgBox "Element Migration Completed",0,"Archimate2 Migration"
ElseIf selType = 5 Then 'means Package
set selPackage = GetTreeSelectedObject
MigrateElement selPackage.PackageGUID, selPackage.PackageID
MsgBox "Package Migration Completed",0,"Archimate2 Migration"
Else
MsgBox "Select a Package or Element in the Project Browser to initiate migration",0,"Archimate2 Migration"
End If
End Sub
Sub Main
MigrateSelectedItem
End Sub
Main
