Can someone help me with a macro to set database space

I have reverse engineered one of our existing datbases and made a change. But now I have a validation error as the database space has not defaulted to system. Is there a way I can do this without editing every entity.

Thanks

Terry

Hi Terry,

If I understand you have a set of entities, that have assigned “DatabaseSpace1” and you want assign to all all entities which have “DatabaseSpace1” another “Database space”.

I can write to you this macro, but please I need to know what database are you use and what TDM version. I see that “database space” is in SAP Anywhere and Sybase IQ.

Oh and what I want to do is replace the DBSpace which hasn’t been assigned from a reverse engineered database. I want to set it to “system”

Hi Terry,

I created for you custom package, you can import it from "Main Menu - Customization - Import Custom Package" (Expert Mode must be switch on, you can switch on in Main Menu - Settings- Option - General).

Now when you have active Anywhere Model go to Main Menu - Macros. There should be new item "Assign Database Space".

You can run it, you get simply dialog, where you need to select destination Database Space (must be present in model) and click to Execute. For all entities in model will be assigned selected Database Space.

If you wan modify this macro, you can open "Package Explorer" from "Main Menu - Expert Mode - Customization - Package Explorer". In toolbar of Package Explorer Hide System Packages and you will see only few packages. One oft them will be "DatabaseSpaceTools", open its branch and under Macros node is only one macro. You can modify it by popup menu "Edit Source Code" or "Properties".

I tested it on Anywhere 17, but it should works on Anywhere 11 too.
