Logical Formalism and Synchronization
The logical formalism applied by default in the synchronization is the UML notation. It integrates handling of parts, not associations. When you synchronize a data model into a physical model, associations of the model are not taken into account in the synchronization.
It is possible to take into account the UML notation and the data models with the treatment of associations and not of parts. You can change the formalism with the "Hopex Administrator” profile.
The option set applies by default to all databases in the repository, but you can change the formalism only on one database in its synchronization options.
To access the option:
1. Login with the “ Hopex Administrator” profile.
2. Open the options of the environment concerned.
3. In the options window, expand the Hopex Solutions > Data Management > Database Synchronization.
4. In the right pane of the window, in Default correspondence type, select the desired value:
• UML - Physical: default option (with the processing of parts)
• Datamodel - Physical: old option (with the processing of associations)
