Generate Class Tree is available as a shortcut menu command on an enum. This creates a load file containing a classification structure matching the enum hierarchy selected. The user identifies the class definition for the classification objects, and the load file contains all the classification objects and the relationships to the known hierarchy. This load file can then be loaded, and the tree can be either related to an existing tree or used as a complete tree.

  1. To generate a class tree, right-click the enum, and click Generate Class Tree on the shortcut menu. The Generate Class Tree Wizard is displayed.

  2. Select the classification ClassDef to create, and click Next.

  3. Select the Optional Interfaces.

    The optional interfaces will be instantiated on all nodes of the tree generated by the wizard. These can be edited in the generated load file or after loading using the Add Optional Interface shortcut menu command.

  4. Click Finish, and enter the load file name.

  5. Click Save to generate the load file.

The structure must then be loaded using the Loader. Next, drag the sub-tree onto an existing tree. If this is a completely new tree, it must be exposed in the client. For more information, see Exposing the classification tree in the client.
