Saving Your JADE Schema and Forms Definitions
Use the JADE extract options to tailor the saving of your current schema or to extract a specific class, interface, or method.
You can extract only your user-defined schemas. You cannot extract or load the RootSchema (the base schema that contains system objects).
The Extract command from the Schema menu enables you to save (extract) the current schema to a file.
Use the Schema menu Extract command when you are:
-
Backing up a full or partial schema
-
Passing code to another user
-
Fully reconstructing a schema in the same JADE release
The Schema menu Extract command enables you to extract:
-
A full or partial schema
-
Forms from all applications in a subschema
The Classes, Interfaces, and Methods menus provide facilities to extract a selected method, interface, class, or class and its subclasses, and write them to a file. Extracting a class, interface, or method provides you with a quick means of creating an extracted file of a class, interface, or method; for example, for a backup, to pass the code to another user, or to reconstruct.
Using this command is a simpler, faster way to extract an individual method, interface, class, or class and subclasses than performing a selective extract of your schema.
When you extract a class, its associated methods, properties, and so on, are also extracted. Extracting an interface also extracts its associated constants and methods. For more details, see "
