Extracting Selected Entities

If you selected the Selected Class And Subclasses class restriction option in step 6 under "Using the Changed Methods Dialog" and you select the Extract All Schema-Defined command from the Methods menu in the Change Identification Browser or the Checked Out Methods Browser, the Selective Extract Error dialog, shown in the following image, is displayed when you click the Save button on the common Save As dialog if a class or method was specified for selective extract and it does not exist in the current schema (for example, you selected the All Schemas in the restrictions group box on the Changed Methods or Checked Out Methods dialog).

For details about extracting all schema-defined methods, see "Extracting All Schema-Defined Methods", in Chapter 10 of the JADE Development Environment User’s Guide.

All methods or classes selected for extract but that do not exist in the current schema are displayed in the list box in the upper area of the dialog.

  1. In the Select one of the following group box, if you want to ignore these errors and continue with the extract process, select the:

    • Ignore these errors and continue option button (the default), to extract the changed methods from the schema from which the command was selected.

    • Correct the parameter file and continue option button if you are using a parameter file and you want to correct the parameter file (that is, remove those entities that caused an extract error because they do not exist in the current schema) and continue with the extract process, using the replacement parameter file from which entities in error were removed.

    • Return to the Extract Options window option button if you want to abandon the selective extract and return to the Change Identification or the Checked Out Methods Browser.

    • Cancel the operation option button if you want to abandon the selective extract operation and return to the Change Identification Browser, the Checked Out Methods Browser, or the Extract dialog.

    Entities that contain errors are excluded from the extract process.

  2. Click the OK button to perform the action that you selected and return to the Change Identification or Checked Out Methods Browser.
