Example: Assignment
There are two models, and model M2 is assigned to the function F1 in the model M1:
If the two models are subsequently transferred by the merge into another database, the assignment is created, too, due to the Include border items option set when the M2 model is merged. Thus, the transferred models exist in the database INCLUDING the assignment relationship:
Example: Connections
The model M1 contains objects E1 and F1. The object E1 is selected in Explorer and transferred by the merge.
Extract from the log file. The created object in the target database is E1:
Information Groups updated: 1.
Information Objects created: 1.
At a later time and in another merge procedure, the object F1 is transferred. The Include border items setting of the connection handling checks whether objects exist to which the F1 object has a connection in the source database. This is the case here because a connection exists to object E1. Therefore, the F1 object definition and the connection definition are created in the target database:
Extract from the log file. The created object is F1 and the created connection is the connection between E1 and F1:
Information Groups updated: 1.
Information Objects created: 1.
Connections created: 1.
