Configuring Sun Master Indexes (Repository)

ProcedureTo Define New Fields

  1. In the Projects window, expand the Configuration node in the project you want to modify, and then double-click the Enterprise Data Manager file.

    The file opens in the NetBeans XML editor.

  2. Scroll to the node element that defines the object to which you want to add a field.

  3. In the node element, create a new element named field-, where field_name is the name of the field as it appears in the Object Definition file.

    For example:


    <node-Person>
   <field-LastName>
   </field-LastName>
</node>

  4. Define and configure the elements listed inEDM Field Configuration Elements for the new field-field_name element.

    For example:


    <field-LastName>
   <display-name>LastName</display-name>
   <display-order>2</display-order>
   <max-length>40</max-length>
   <gui-type>TextBox</gui-type>
   <value-type>string</value-type>
   <is-sensitive>false</is-sensitive> 
   <key-type>false</key-type>
</field-LastName>

  5. If necessary, renumber any existing fields to keep the numbering sequential.

  6. Save and close the file.
