Create synchronisation file

Previous Next

From "Database account", creates a flat file that contains USoft Definer declarations for "Module", ie., a USoft ".CON file". It is customary that this flat file is named "module.con".

The filepath to the exported flat file is the filepath declared for the module in the "Internal Interface Consumers" list declared for the top-level application in USoft Definer. This list is accessed via the Tools, Manage Internal Interfaces menu in the USoft Definer instance where the top-level application is developed.

This action only executes if this filepath has previously been made known to Delivery Manager by extracting the module names of the top-level application.

The purpose of the "Create synchronisation file" operation is that the file becomes available to the top-level application for synchronisation.

Errors

An error is raised if the name submitted for the "Module" application is declared as a module in Delivery Manager (ie., if that name is the name of the top-level application or the name of a USoft application).

An error is raised if the name of "Module" has not been extracted from the USoft Definer instance where the top-level application is developed. This extraction is executed by the Extract module names action.
