How to generalize tables
« on: February 03, 2009, 04:02:14 am »
Hello,

I have a lot of tables with the same structure and I would like to do a generalization is that possible in the data model within Enterprise Architecture?

Thank you

Does not look like that is supported. But since tables are really realizations of one or more classes (maybe), then it might be more appropriate to model the generalization there, where it is supported.

Not sure if that helped at all,

Hi Petar,

When inspecting the DDL transformation templates, I noticed that there is some handling of generalization links from the PIM. Don't know what exactly will be generated in the DDL model, you should simply try it.
