To recompile or reorganize your existing application, perform the following:
Back up your application and its database.
In Builder, set the Retain Existing Database Segment configuration property to True.
This property is preset to True if a Generation date is entered, or if the database has been converted from an earlier release version.
If you set the Retain Existing Database property to True, and during the build process DMS II identifies that a change has occurred to the database structure since the last generation and compile, a database update or reorganization take places. Refer to Generating that Causes Update or Reorganization for more information.
Only <<Ispec>> classes and methods that have been changed since your last build is extracted for generation. This improves build performance (provided you did not remove your source files from disk).
