Custom Checks (Profile)

Custom checks are model checks, written in VBScript, which enable you to verify that your model objects are well-defined. Custom checks are listed with standard model checks in the Check Model Parameters dialog box.

For more information about using VBScript, see Scripting PowerDesigner.

• Custom Check Properties
  You specify the properties for a custom check by selecting its entry in the resource editor.
• Defining the Script of a Custom Check
  This section also applies for defining the script of a custom method, a calculated collection, an event handler, or a transformation.
• Defining the Script of an Autofix
  If the custom check you have defined supports an automatic correction, you can type the body of this function in the Autofix Script tab of the custom check properties.
• Using the Global Script
  This section also applies for defining the script of a custom method, a calculated collection, an event handler, or a transformation.
• Running Custom Checks and Troubleshooting Scripts
  All custom checks defined in any resource files attached to the model are merged and all the functions for all the custom checks are appended to build one single script. The Check Model Parameters dialog box displays all custom checks defined on metaclasses, stereotypes and criteria under the corresponding categories.
