Glossary

RaQuest provides a glossary feature to manage terms which are used in the project. This glossary feature is completely compatible with the glossary feature in Enterprise Architect, so you can also access them from the Design | Dictionary | Glossary | Glossary View or the Glossary dialog in Enterprise Architect.

How to Add Terms to the Glossary

To display the glossary dialog, select Design | Dictionary | Glossary | Edit item. The dialog has the same contents as the Glossary dialog in Enterprise Architect and its operation is also the same.

How to Utilize the Glossary

The Generate Classes from Glossary feature enables you to generate classes from the terms in the glossary. The generated classes have the same names as the names of their corresponding terms.

(Glossary term name -> Class name / Glossary description -> Class notes)

 

To generate classes, select Tools | Enterprise Architect features | Generate Classes from Glossary menu item. A dialog will be displayed for specifying the location to store the classes. Once the location is specified, the classes will be generated as you specified.

How To Print and Export Glossary

The Enterprise Architect feature is available for printing out or exporting the RaQuest glossary.
