Changing the Object Language

You can change the object language being modeled in your OOM at any time.

Note: You may be required to change the object language if you open a model and the associated definition file is unavailable. Language definition files are frequently updated in each version of PowerDesigner and it is highly recommended to accept this change, or otherwise you may be unable to generate for the selected language.

Select Language > Change Current Object Language :
Select a object language from the list.

By default, PowerDesigner creates a link in the model to the specified file. To copy the contents of the resource and save it in your model file, click the Embed Resource in Model button to the right of this field. Embedding a file in this way enables you to make changes specific to your model without affecting any other models that reference the shared resource.
Click OK.

A message box opens to tell you that the object language has been changed.
Click OK to return to the model.
