To export an application release:
1. | From the Repository Manager menu, select Define, Application Releases. |
| The Application Releases window opens. |
2. | Perform a query that retrieves the release to be exported. |
| Double-click on the name of the application release from the Manage tab of the catalog |
3. | In the Application Releases window, click the Export Application button. |
| The following question appears: |
You are about to export the <Repository> application to:
<Folder for Applications>\<Prod Version>_<id>.xml
Continue?
4. | Click Yes if you want to export this application release. |
| If the Backup checkbox for the release is selected, first a copy is made of the existing release (if any). It is copied to a document with name: |
<prod version>_<id>.old.xml
| Then, a DOS command box is opened, and a USoft Application is opened for the account of the production version. In this Application, the application release is exported. |
| Depending on the size of the application (basket), this may take a while. |
| Once the export is finished, the DOS command box and the USoft Application window are closed, and in the Repository Manager, a message appears. |
| In the Application Releases window, the Exported field is set to the current date and time, and in the catalog, an icon appears to denote that this release has been exported. |
6. | You can click the View Application button to view the application release in an external editor. |
