New version of Data Modeller?

Any idea when the next version or patchset of Data Modeler will be released?

I would also be happy to see an update that fixed some of the many issues that have been reported here but when I spoke to Sue Harper 3 months ago (just before she left Oracle) she said there were no plans on releasing a patch or update :-(

A newer version of data type BBP_PDS_HSS_IC was found than one required

Hi,
When I create a SC, it is automatically approved but the PO is not created.
If I check TRX SM58 I get the message:
"A newer version of data type BBP_PDS_HSS_IC was found than one required"
Any ideas?
Carlos Durazo

Hi
Which SRM version are you using ?
By an chance have you created any new fields in the standard structure
'BBP_PDS_HSS_IC' using SE11 Transaction in SRM system. Please confirm the same by taking help of ABAP person here. Seems to be like the structure is not Activated completed.

Error: A newer version of data type was found than one required

Hi Experts,
we made a changes to a table and then transported the table to the quality system. But a program which is referring to this table, results in dump with the below error message.
Error Message>>>>>>>>>>" A newer version of data type <TABLE> was found than one required "
The issue occures inspite of
1. re-activated the table and send to quality system
2. Re-activated the program
3. Activated and adjusted database in SE14.
Please let me know the correction to be taken to resolve the issue.
Regards
Suresh Kumar

This happens when you modify your new data element, domain while another program is currently using it.
Simply get out completely of the program, re activate the program, reactivate the table. You might need to run se14 to convert the database table but this does not happen frequently. Try first to reactivate the program

Dump-A newer version of data type "ZMNFLOCK" was found than one required

Hi,
I am getting dump in program when there is a select query on ZMNFLOCK table.
Error analsys is given as
Error analysis
The data type "ZMNFLOCK" was loaded from the database during the program run.
    However, a type of a newer version than the one requried was found here.
What could be the problem? my BASIS person says this is somewhere related to ABAP.
should i Adjust & Activate database by going to SE14 for ZMNFLOCK table.
Also noted that error is random in nature and its not coming everytime.

Hi,
There could be an issue with in the table, As Dataelement or domain related to any field in table may have changed, And that field is not getting used aal the time, That's why Dump is coming randomly.
The best possible solution is to Activate and adjust database table through SE14, This will update table with all the updated versions.
Thanks

New SQL Developer Data Modeler : name of attributes of foreign key

Hi,
with designer the name of column of foreign key was the " short name of entity/table master" + "_" + "the name of column attribute of the master table" .
Instead in the sql developer D.M. the system uses directly the name of the column/attribute of the master table and if the name exists in the slave table it uses a number to distinguish them .
So, if i have a table with short name gp and a primmary key id and a slave table with even a column id ,
with the D.M i'll have in the slave table a column named id2; in the designer instead the new column is gp_id .
Is possible to have the same behavior of designer even in the SQL Developer Data Modeler ?
Regards
Gianpaolo Giliberto

Hi Gianpaolo,
the columns of foreign keys are generated without the short name of master tablehow do you define that short name? Table and column have property "Abbreviation" - short name should be set there. You need also to set naming templates in "General Options>Naming Standard>Templates". Templates will be used when foreign key is created or you can apply them in Table dialog or for whole relational model using pop-up menu in the browser.
no foreign key index is generated on foreign key columns I assume, you want it for DDL generation only - this is controlled in "General Options>DDL"

Problems with printing from SQL Developer Data Modeler 2.0

Hi,
I am not able to print my Relational Model (SubView) from Data Modeler 2.0 Build 584. Only an empty page comes out. If I don't reduce the Print Scale (usually to 10-30%) I get something but then it is lots of pages. I have tried A4 and A3 format. Printing to JPEG or PDF seems to be ok.
I have relational data model with 25 tables in my SubView.
Is there any restriction on Print Scale or number of objects in the diagram?
Do I have to install SQL Developer as well? I have just Data Modeler insalled.
Regards,
Alex

Data Modeler: Problems with importin from DDL and Designer

I have a few problems with importing models from Designer and DDL:
1. Can I import spatial indexes from Designer or DDL file? An index does appear in the model but it doesn’t seem to be a spatial index. When trying to import from database, the index doesn’t appear in the model at all.
2. Is it possible to import sdo_geometry data types from DDL file? I haven’t succeeded with it, instead the column's data type appears unknown.
3. Sometimes import from DDL files (that are generated with DM) failed with nothing appearing to the model. I haven’t figured out why that happens. I didn’t receive any error message, the model just opened empty.
4. DM doesn’t seem to recognize public synonym creation from DDL. View log gives the following message:
<<<<< Not Recognized >>>>>
CREATE PUBLIC SYNONYM TABLE1
FOR TABLE1
5. Sequences lose their properties when importing from Designer. They only have a name but but start with, increment by and min/max values are empty in DM. Importin from DDL works fine.
I’m using data modeler version 2.0.0 build 584

Cannot edit data model after upgrading to 10.1.3.4.1

Hi,
I've recently upgraded from 10.1.3.4 to 10.1.3.4.1 running under Tomcat 6.
But now I cannot work with data models anymore. When I click on 'New' while Report > Data Model is selected, a new model is created but I cannot work with it.
While editing an existing report, clicking on a data model does nothing. In IE8, I can see the following error message:
Webpage error details

I dont think BIP is certified on IE8 yet. would recommend either dropping back a version or using FF

SQL Developer Data Modeler scripting

Hi,
I'm looking for a new modeling software for my company. SQL Developer Data Modeler (SDDM) has many features that fit my requirements. But there are some things that I'm not sure can be done. I work mostly with Oracle databases but still need to support some legacy and non-sql databases. Please look at problems below and tell me if and how those things can be achieved. Any suggestions for alternative solutions are welcome too.
1) I need to be able process Database Model from command line without human intervention and starting any GUI applications, for example generate DDL script form the model. Does SDDM have any interface for that?
2) I want to be able to export Database Model into a file in a custom (legacy) format.
3) SDDM stores database description in xml files. Is xml format defined anywhere? Are xsd schema files availabe?
4) Is there a SDK available that would allow reading SDDM Database Model into a custom application for further processing?
5) Is there any Java library available that parses Oracle-11-compatible SQL and PL/SQL?
Thank you in advance
Tomasz Grygo

Hi Kevin,
thanks for sharing your thoughts. There will be much more advanced find/search facilities in next version of Data Modeler and scripts also will be covered.

SQL Developer Data Modeler Repository

Hi,
I would like to know how to save all my applications into the Data Modeler Repository instead of doing it piece by piece and having to create a dmd file for every single application I imported into Data Modeler.
In Oracle Designer, everything is in the repository and I can run reports against the tables and views belonging to that repository. So, I can produce a pdf documentation out of it. Can we do the same with Data Modeler?
Thank you!

Hello Anonymous,
I'll start with your first comment - "I would like to know how to save all my applications into the Data Modeler Repository ". The Repository is just for reporting purposes, as Dimitar points outs, so saving all your applications in the Data Modeler is merely File - Save. This action saves the current design (with all its models) to the file system. The main premise here is that the Data Modeler is a file based product and all models and designs are saved locally to the file system. This is a positive move for many customers who are now building applications in Java or using any of the application development environments that work with a variety of files. They are taking all the artifacts and placing them under version control using open source versing tools like Subversion. Using the Data Modeler, they can do the same.
For reporting you have a choice, one of which has also been explained. The action of creating a schema before you export the design is a one off step. Following on from this you can export new versions of the model to the same repository. The reason we did this was that many of the Designer audience wanted to write and run their own reports. So here you have a set of tables that you can write whatever SQL query you want to use.
The other reporting option is to use the integrated reports in the product and you do not have to export the design or open another product or write SQL.
Have you used the Design Rules in the Data Modeler? These are a set of "reports" for quality assurance purposes. There are many of these reports at all levels of the design which verify that your model is defined according to a set of database rules and general business rules and if you like, you can add your own rules.
I attended ODTUG last week in LA and was really pleased to listen to a number of talks by well seasoned Designer users who have successfully transitioned to the Data Modeler and who had many positive experiences.
Yes, the tools are different - but the one tool was not designed to replace the other - Data Modeler does none of the application design and generation that Designer does, those customers who have wanted to replace one tool (people are moving to the data Modeler from different tools) with the Data Modeler, have reported to me that they are pleased with the change.

Spatial support in SQL Dev Data Modeler

Hi,
I am designing some tables using the new SQL Developer Data Modeler, and have added some columns which will store point clouds and TINs (both using the specialized Oracle data types). I have noticed in Data Modeler that the SDO_GEOMETRY data type is available to use as a column type, but the SDO_PC and SDO_TIN data types are not available for use. Or perhaps the column types for these data types are actually something else - perhaps integers (given that several tables may be used to store this specialized data)?
Thanks,
Matt

Hi Matt,
there are additional meta data related to spatial tables (and indexes) - Data modeler helps these data to be defined and properly registered in USER_SDO_GEOM_METADATA view. Also specific meta data for spatial indexes can be defined - unfortunately support for spatial indexes in dialogs is broken. Still table related spatial meta data can be defined and generated - see example below. You also can import spatial meta data from database (support is at Oracle 10g level) - you need to check "Spatial Properties" in "Data dictionary Import wizard".
About SDO_Geometry data type and other types in MDSYS schema - SDO_Geometry comes predefined because of its importance for spatial table definitions - but that definition is incomplete (and still enough to be used). If you need complete definition of SDO_Geometry type or other types in MDSYS schema, you simply can import them from database and can use them in your model.

Modifying a note in Data Modeler

There is a note in an ERD that I created with Data Modeler. I just edited it and clicked OK, but the changes I made do not show up in the note. As a test, I created a new note and added and deleted text to it several times and saw my changes appear. So why can't I see the changes that I just made to the original note?

It seems you are using 2.0 version of Data Modeler. It's refresh problem - just click on note and you'll see changed status. Probably note dialog is covering your new note and it's refreshed when dialog is closed.

Service doesn't update after data model updating

Hello, dear experts!
I have a question.
I created OData Service and all is OK.
After that I have updated data model. MPC methods have been changed with my new updates. But I can't see new service metadata document, browser displays old version of it. And service works in the way like old version of data model is actual.
I don’t understand this behavior.
In the book “OData and SAP NetWeaver Gateway” I have read that it is not “waterfall” approach in Gateway, which means that we can make changes in all 3 service creation phases (data model definition, service implementation and service maintenance) in the order we want.
I tried regenerate runtime objects and reactivate service, clear browser cache, but it didn’t help.
I put external breakpoint into DEFINE method of the MPC class and send some requests to server, but debugger doesn’t open. It looks like some kind of server cache.
I think it is incorrect behavior. What would you recommend?
Thanks in advance,
Ihar

This feature is available from SP7

Data Model Info

Hi all.
I have a little question.
I have made a Mac OS X app that uses CoreData with a DataModel and SQLite method.
Once the DB is created if I want to update it with, for example, another field, how I can to do that?
If I change only the DataModel the program falls!

You have to create a new version of your data model and add a mapping model to your project to migrate the data. Choose Design > Data Model > Add Model Version to create a new version of your data model. Add your new field to the new version.
Choose File > New File to add a mapping model to your project. The mapping model is in the Resources group under both Mac OS X and iPhone. Pick the appropriate version. Make the old version of your data model the source model and the new version the destination model.
You're also going to have to write some code to migrate the data to the new version of your data model. Read the Core Data Model Versioning and Data Migration Programming Guide, which is part of Apple's documentation, for additional information on updating Core Data data models.
