Creating scripts using Access As and Object Prefix

To create scripts using the Access As and Object Prefix values:

Open the Deployment form.
Click the Export using AccessAs and Object Prefix option.
In the Export Applet section, specify this information:
Profile Name

Specify the name the deployment profile.
Note: You can have multiple deployment profiles for application or applet script packages.

IDO Project Name

Select the IDO project for the application or applet that you want to deploy.

Access As

This field displays the Access As value for the selected IDO project.
This value is used to filter the Objects database customizations. Only objects that have the Access As value in your current session are used.

Object Prefix

Specify the correct prefix for the application or applet objects.
Normally, this value is the same as the Access As value, but not necessarily.
This prefix is used for all customized Forms database objects created, such as forms, component classes, scripts, strings, and so on. Application database schemas and User-Defined Data Types (UDTs) are also filtered and included based on this prefix.

Script Application Database

Select this check box to create scripts for database schemas, specifically for custom-created tables and all custom-created UDTs.

Script Forms Database

Select this check box to create scripts for all forms metadata and global objects.

Script Objects Database

Select this check box to create scripts for all Objects database elements, such as IDO definitions, IDO property classes, and IDO extension class assemblies.
This database also includes some metadata definitions found in the Application database that use the Access As attribute. This includes all customized Application Event System (AES) metadata and all customized Replication Document metadata.

Include data

Select this check box to specify that any data in the app tables must be included in the scripts.

Scope
Select the scope type:
- Vendor: Click this option to create script files that are used by an application vendor.
- Site: Click this option to create script files that are used by all users.
Output

Specify the location in which the zip package with the scripted files is to be created.
Use the ellipsis (…) button to the right of this field to navigate to and select the location you want.
Note: The ellipsis button is not available in the web client or in a partial trust situation. However, you can still designate a path and filename for the imported files. Web or partial trust needs a suggested name for download, but you can change it.
Click Create Scripts.

The system creates all the selected script files and packages them into a zip file at the specified location.

To verify that the zip file has been correctly created, perform these actions:

Click View Log, and examine the output log for the operation.
Go to the designated output location and verify that the zip file is there and that it contains the expected script files.
