Generating from and Reverse Engineering to Models

PowerDesigner provides various forms of sophisticated generation and reverse engineering for your models. For more information about:

Generating another model from your model, see Linking and Synchronizing Models.
Generating and reverse-engineering code for a particular model type, see the appropriate modeling guide.
Customizing generation and defining new forms of generation, see the Customizing and Extending PowerDesigner book.

Extended Generation
If you have attached an extended model definition to your model, and it defines additional forms of generation (for example, the Sybase AS IQ DBMS supports the generation of data movement scripts via an extended model definition), you can invoke the generation by selecting Tools Extended Generation .
