Specifying a Name for Your External Database Schema

The Name sheet of the External Schema Wizard is displayed when the dialog is first opened, to enable you to define the name of your new external database schema.

To specify a name for your external database schema

1. In the External Database Name text box, specify the name of your new external database schema; for example, ExtDb. The name must be unique to the current JADE schema and must be a valid unique class name. JADE converts the first character to uppercase, if required.

   The name is used as a subclass of the JADE ExternalDatabase class. When you have defined the name for your external database schema and proceeded to the next step in the schema transformation, you cannot change this name.

2. Click the Next > button when you have defined your external database schema name.

   Alternatively, click the Close button to abandon the schema transformation.

When you click the Next > button, the External Schema Wizard then enables you to establish the connection to the external database.
