To view differences, or merge, elements directly in the System Modeler Source Control Utilities, they must be exported so that the elements are available in the correct format. The Export utility provides a means to perform this action.
To export an element, perform the following:
From Class view or the Members pane, select the element or group of elements that you want to export.
From the File menu, select Export.
The Export Wizard with the selected elements checked on the tree view is displayed.
To access the wizard externally, select Start, expand Agile Business Suite 7.0, and then select Model Exporter.
Elements exported from Developer models are contained in the Agile Business Suite XML file.
Once the elements have been exported into System Modeler Export Files you can open the files in the Version Control Utilities.
The Differences utility can also be invoked from the command line using the following command and parameters:
Compare <file name 1> <file name 2>
Where <file name 1> is the first file to view in the Compare View window, and <file name 2> is the second file to view in the Compare View window.
The Merge utility can also be invoked from the command line using the following command and parameters:
Merge <file name 1> <file name 2> <file name 3>
Where <file name 1> is the first file to view in the Merge View window, <file name 2> is the second file to view in the Merge View window, and <file name 3> is the name of the resulting merged Interchange file.
