Use to view an object definition and to add or edit flexfields for this object.
An Object is a representation of an element that can be handled through Oracle Data Integrator (agents, models, datastores, projects, and so forth).
The Object Editor has the following tabs:
| Properties | Description |
|---|---|
| Name | Label of the object that appears in the user interface. |
Flexfields are user-defined fields that enable you to customize the properties of Oracle Data Integrator objects. Flexfields are defined for an object type (for example, the Project object type) in the Flexfield tab of the Object Editor. The flexfield values are provided for each object instance in the Flexfield tab of the instance's editor (for example, the Datawarehouse Project Editor). Flexfield values can be used programatically through Oracle Data Integrator substitution methods.
Note:
Flexfield exists only for certain object type. Objects that do not have a Flexfield tab do not support them.| Properties | Description |
|---|---|
| Name | Label of the flexfield as it appears in the Flexfield tab of the Object Instance Editor. |
| Code | Code of the flexfield. |
| Technology | Technology for which the flexfield will be activated. For instance, a flexfield on a procedure only appears for procedures using this technology. |
| Type | Type of the flexfield (String or Numeric). |
| Default | Default value of the flexfield. |
