Transformation Reference
« on: August 05, 2006, 06:11:18 pm »
I am thinking of updating the DDL transformation to support a need I have. So far, I am not sure the Help provides everything I need. In particular, I seem to need to know the Intermeidate Language and the name of all the attributes of model elements. For example, the name of an association seems to be 'name' but it could be 'Link Name'. Is there a reference for all these names that I am missing?

Thanks

I have made some progress. But now, I want to set the name of a Foreign Key Constraint. In the transform, I cannot see it being set. Is there anyhere I can get the name of this item? Can I override the generated name?

Thanks

Well, the intermediary language documentation has been updated to include all the fields that are available for version 6.5.

The ability to specify the name of the foreign key in a transformation has also been added for 6.5.  It will be done by setting the name on the source of the connector.

Thanks for the quick reply. I will greatly anticipate version 6.5. For now, I will resist asking when it is coming out. So far, you updates have always been of high quality, so I can wait for you to produce a quality product.
