Example: Specifying a Model Generation Action

The Model Generation action lets a framework user generate one or more models from another model. The generated model will be displayed in the Browser under the project node and as a document in the node or cell to which it has been attached.

1. Double-click a framework cell to open its property sheet, and click the Actions tab.
2. Click the Add a Row tool to create a new action, and double-click it to open its property sheet.
3. On the General tab, enter Generate from Logical Model in the Name field.
4. Clear the Multiple check box to specify that exactly one generated PDM can be attached to the cell.
5. Click the Detail tab, and specify the following properties in the fields (see Framework Action Property Sheet Detail Tab):

   Property	Select or enter
   Type	Generation
   Model type	Physical Data Model
   Model language	Sybase AS Enterprise 15.0.2
   Source model type	Logical Data Model
   Source location	Logical data model

   
   
   
6. Click OK to close the action and cell property sheets and return to the framework matrix.

   The Model Generation action is now available for use by framework matrix users (see Attaching a Document to a Framework Node and Cell).
