Overview

The GUI and non‑GUI versions of the Schema Load utility (jadload and jadloadb, respectively) and the non‑GUI RootSchema JadeSchemaLoader application are supplied with the JADE release, to enable you to load runtime‑only JADE applications.

A set of Schema Load utility database files that contain no JADE development information is also supplied on the JADE release medium. The Jade Loader icon is installed in your JADE program folder when you install JADE.

The standalone Schema Load utility and the JadeSchemaLoader application enable you to load JADE applications into a cut-down database, which excludes all JADE development classes and methods. You can load:

• User schemas into a runtime-only JADE database that can then be deployed at user sites

• Patches to your JADE system into a full JADE environment or a runtime-only environment

• Patches to a runtime-only database deployed at a user site

The Schema Load utility and the non‑GUI JadeSchemaLoader application enable you to:

• Add new classes, interfaces, and methods

• Modify existing methods

• Rename schemas

• Add, delete, or modify properties and inverse references

• Delete existing schemas, classes, interfaces, packages, or methods

• Reorganize user data

• Load form, RPS database map, relational view, and external database definitions

• Load JADE Report Writer data

  As all JADE Report Writer files (that is, files with a suffix of rwv, rwo, rwf, rwu, rwr, and rwa) are loaded only into the current schema version, they should therefore be loaded after any database reorganization transition.

You can run the JadeSchemaLoader application:

• As a presentation (thin) client

• In single user or multiuser mode as a standard (fat) client

• In single user or multiuser mode from a non‑GUI client

• From your application code
