[v14beta] Synchronizing model with DB
« on: March 29, 2018, 07:43:57 pm »
In DatabaseBuilder there is option to synchronize current model with database. It's called "ShowDifferences (With options)". It allows reverse engineering existing database mode and apply differences to the model or generate DDL to apply over database.

The feature can be initialized by selecting an option from context menu opened from root element (Postgres in this case) or from sub elements. The later allows to reverse engineering only particular types of objects (see picture below).

But there is another difference. I found, that selecting ShowDifferences from subelements (ie Tables) doesn't report objects existing in database but not existing in the model. While using root element, EA reports new objects allowing to add them to the model.

I can see some inconsistency here. But I'm not sure the behavior has some purpose or it's a glitch?



Found in v14beta. While I can see a lot important improvements comparing to v13, I don't know this issue is new in v14 or was present before.

with regards
