Object Mappings Properties

When you map an object or a sub-object, its mapping details appear in the Mappings pane. The mapping has properties that you access using the Properties tool beside the Mapping list or using the different sub-tabs displayed in the lower part of the Mappings pane.

• Object Mappings Property Sheet General Tab
  The General tab contains the following properties:
• Object Mappings Property Sheet Sources Tab
  The Sources tab allows you to associate one or several objects or sub-objects in the data source to the object or sub-object in the target model.
• Object Mappings Property Sheet Sub-Object Mappings Tab
  Each sub-object in the source object can be associated with a sub-object of the target object in order to specify where and how attribute values are stored in the database or model. The sub-object of the source object is displayed in the Selection dialog box in order to let you create a mapping with these inherited sub-objects. You can use the following tools to define sub-object mappings:
• Object Mappings Property Sheet Operation Mappings Tab
  The Operations Mapping tab allows you to associate a SQL query to an operation of a class.
• Object Mappings Property Sheet Criteria Tab
  The Criteria tab allows you to specify join criteria between source objects. For example: EMPLOYEE.ID < 100
• Object Mappings Property Sheet Query Tab
  This query is automatically computed to figure out how to retrieve or update data in the database.
