Exporting and importing at the time of distributed development

You can use an approach called distributed development to develop a DB adapter in multiple development environments. When you develop a DB adapter in an environment other than the master development environment, you need to export it from the non-master environment and then import it to the master development environment.

The following describes how to export and import all of the definition files for a DB adapter, and how to export and import individual DB adapter definition files.

Organization of this subsection: (1) Exporting and importing all files for a DB adapter; (2) Exporting and importing individual DB adapter definition files

(1) Exporting and importing all files for a DB adapter

When you use HCSCTE in Eclipse to develop a DB adapter, the DB adapter created by this process is stored in the repository. Therefore, when developing a DB adapter by distributed development, you can export and import it by exporting and importing the repository.

For details on how to export the repository, see 3.2.2 Exporting a Repository in the manual Service Platform Basic Development Guide. For details on how to import the repository, see 3.2.3 Importing a Repository in the Service Platform Basic Development Guide.

(2) Exporting and importing individual DB adapter definition files

If the Eclipse project is specified as the output destination of the definition files for the DB adapter, you can use standard Eclipse functionality to export and import the DB adapter definition files and the results of definition file generation as a batch.

For details on how to export and import this information, see the Eclipse documentation.
