Modifying MIDM Objects

Once an object is defined in midm.xml, you can modify the name or display order. Only modify the name of an object if you modify the corresponding object name in object.xml and the remaining configuration files. Do not change the parent object name. If you modify an object in the object definition on the Configuration Editor, the midm.xml is automatically updated as well.

ProcedureTo Modify an MIDM Object

  1. In the Projects window, expand the Configuration node in the project you want to modify, and then double-click midm.xml.

    The file opens in the NetBeans XML editor.

  2. To modify the object name, change the value of the name element to the new name for the object.


    Note –

    If you change an object name, modify the name in the relationships section as well.


  3. To modify the order in which the object appears on the MIDM, change the value of the display-order element.

  4. If necessary, renumber the order of other child objects so they are sequential.

  5. Save and close the file.
