Export and Import Smart Materials Business Custom Applications - Intergraph Smart Materials - Version 10.2 - Installation & Upgrade - Hexagon

This section describes how to export and import your business custom applications.

• From 10.2 onwards we use the table m_ig_context_menus to activate data load and copy down in our screens and in custom screens. Therefore the screens which are listed in HXGN_JS_CUSTOM need to be migrated during the upgrade from 10.1 version.
  

• Run this INSERT INTO as M_SYS user for every screen which needs data load or copy down.

  INSERT INTO m_sys.m_ig_context_menus (URL, DATALOAD_IND, COPY_DOWN_IND, STANDARD_IND) 

  VALUES ('901:100', 'Y', 'Y', 'N');

  URL: application id : page id

  DATALOAD_IND: activates data load

  COPY_DOWN_IND: activates copy down

  STANDARD_IND: Describes if this was delivered with Smart Materials. Please always use 'N' for custom applications.

• Please make sure to not delete any data from m_ig_context_menus which was delivered with Smart Materials Web. Otherwise data load and copy down functionality won't be available anymore in the pages which are mentioned in the documentation.

Export

Import

1. Login into Apex Workspace Administration at your target system.

2. Click Application Builder.

3. Click Import.

   

4. Select the previously saved export file and click Next.

5. Click Next on the File Import Confirmation screen.

   The workspace should be parsed automatically if you used a dump import, and if you have built your workspace as described in Set Up a New Workspace for Smart Materials Web.

6. Select Reuse Application ID ... From Export File if you don’t want to change the IDs at your target system.

   If you change the IDs, you must change the navigation menu entries in Smart Materials Web for custom applications. When you copy our sample application (900), you need to use a number between 901 and 999 as the new application ID. Additionally, you can use any number above 10000.

   

7. Click Install Application.

   When done, the summary should show 'Application Installed'.

8. Click Edit Application and go back to the Smart Materials Web application to test your imported application.
