Chapter 7 Generating for a Target


Selecting targets to generate in an ILM

You can generate SQL script files for the MobiLink and Replication Server targets in an ILM.

User-defined generation

You can use the Generation Template Language (GTL) mechanism to produce user-defined text for code generation. It allows you to access all elements of the model and to customize the generation process. It is available for all targets supported in an ILM.

For more information on the Generation Template Language mechanism, see section Defining Generation Template Language, in chapter Generation Reference Guide in the Advanced User Documentation .

Trace mode in Preview pages

You can display the generation templates that generate code from the Preview page in object property sheets, provided the Enable Trace Mode check box is selected in the target editor.

For more information on the trace mode property, see section Extended Model Definition properties, in chapter Extended Model Definitions Reference Guide in the Advanced User Documentation .

Check Model

You can check your model before generation if you select the Check Model check box. This check box is available for all targets. The generation stops if an error is found: you must correct this error before starting the generation again.

For more information on the Check Model feature, see section Checking an ILM in chapter Working with Information Liquidity Models.
