Archiving Data Design Projects

You can archive your Data Design Projects by using the Team capabilities of Eclipse. Archive your projects after changing your database to track your changes and to undo your changes when necessary.

Before you begin

You must have access to a library control system such as Rational® ClearCase® or the Concurrent Versions System (CVS).

Procedure

To archive your Data Design project, complete the following steps:

  1. Share your Data Design project if you have not previously shared the project. You can share your Data Design project by right-clicking the project and selecting Team > Share Project. For more information about using Team functions in Eclipse, see the Eclipse Help.
  2. Check in the Data Design Project and all of the associated resources. The manner in which you check in your project depends on the specific library control settings of your Eclipse environment.
  3. Tag your Data Design project by right-clicking the project and selecting Team > Tag as Version. Specify a tag that you can use in the future to identify the changes that you are archiving and the time and date that you made the changes.

What to do next

Repeat this process after you make any change to your database.
