The Create Database Objects Tool lets you create database tables based on the information in entity objects and associations, if specified, their database constraints as specified in the Entity Constraint Wizard. This is called forward generation. To access the tool, in the Workspace view of the Navigator, right-click a business components package and choose Create Database Objects.
WARNING: Be sure to archive existing data before creating new tables so that you can restore it if necessary. You will need to drop any existing database objects that have the same name as those used in the new database tables and key constraints. If there is data in an identically named existing table, it will be lost if you proceed. A message box will warn you of this beforehand.
